Re: [cryptography] Quality of HAVEGE algorithm for entropy?

nipulate/force the TSC which means that Havege generated predictable values. The estimator happily reported good entropy. On an x86-based server you can use Havege, but use it to feed /dev/random, not as a RNG directly. The same goes for Jytter. - -- Med vänlig hälsning, Yours Joachim Strömbergso
