Abstract

We studyPseudorandom Number Generators (PRNGs) as used in practice. We first give a general securityframew ork for PRNGs, incorporating the attacks that users are typically concerned about. We then analyze the most popular ones, including the ANSI X9.17 PRNG and the FIPS 186 PRNG. Our results also suggest ways in which these PRNGs can be made more efficient and more secure.
