3  *
4  * \brief    This file contains definitions and functions for the
5  *           CTR_DRBG pseudorandom generator.
6  *
7  * CTR_DRBG is a standardized way of building a PRNG from a block-cipher
8  * in counter mode operation, as defined in <em>NIST SP 800-90A:
9  * Recommendation for Random Number Generation Using Deterministic Random
10  * Bit Generators</em>.
11  *
12  * The Mbed TLS implementation of CTR_DRBG uses AES-256 (default) or AES-128
13  * (if \c MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_USE_128_BIT_KEY is enabled at compile time)
14  * as the underlying block cipher, with a derivation function.
15  *
16  * The security strength as defined in NIST SP 800-90A is
17  * 128 bits when AES-128 is used (\c MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_USE_128_BIT_KEY enabled)
18  * and 256 bits otherwise, provided that #MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_ENTROPY_LEN is
19  * kept at its default value (and not overridden in mbedtls_config.h) and that the
20  * DRBG instance is set up with default parameters.
21  * See the documentation of mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed() for more
22  * information.
