  2. /dev/random - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dev/random

    In Unix-like operating systems, /dev/random and /dev/urandom are special files that serve as cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generators (CSPRNGs). They allow access to a CSPRNG that is seeded with entropy from environmental noise, collected from device drivers and other sources. [1] /dev/random typically blocked if there was less ...

    Example of a Key Derivation Function chain. The output of one KDF function is the input to the next KDF function in the chain. In cryptography, a key derivation function (KDF) is a cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret keys from a secret value such as a master key, a password, or a passphrase using a pseudorandom function (which typically uses a cryptographic hash function or ...

  5. Random number generator attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generator_attack

    A high quality random number generation (RNG) process is almost always required for security, and lack of quality generally provides attack vulnerabilities and so leads to lack of security, even to complete compromise, in cryptographic systems. [1] The RNG process is particularly attractive to attackers because it is typically a single isolated ...

  6. Password cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_cracking

    Password cracking. In cryptanalysis and computer security, password cracking is the process of recovering passwords [1] from data that has been stored in or transmitted by a computer system in scrambled form. A common approach ( brute-force attack) is to repeatedly try guesses for the password and to check them against an available ...
