Brief Introduction to Entropy and Randomness The Linux pseudo random number generator (PRNG) is a special device that generates randomness from hardware interrupts (keyboard, mouse, disk/network I/O) and other operating system sources. This randomness is used mostly for encryption like SSL/TLS, but also has many other uses. Even something as simple as a program to roll a pair of virtual dice depen
