libprngwrap 1.0.2 announced
[Posted May 5, 2008 by cook]
Hi,
Maybe an interesting library for people who are very serious about
security: libprngwrap (version 1.0.2) was released. Libprngwrap replaces
calls to rand(), random() and other pseudo random generators to calls
which retrieve entropy-data from /dev/urandom (or /dev/random if you
wish and don't care about your application stalling when /dev/random is
out of entropy data).

If you then find that your kernel entropy buffer gets depleted to soon,
one can run 'audio-entropyd' which fills /dev/random with entropy
gathered from an unused audio-card. http://vanheusden.com/aed/
Video-entropyd is the same but then, you guessed it, retrieves entropy
data from an unused video4linux device (webcam, tvcard, etc.)
