Recommendation for the Entropy Sources Used for Random Bit Generation: NIST SP 800-90B

by National Institute of Standards and Technology

Released January 10, 2018 This Recommendation specifies the design principles and requirements for the entropy sources used by Random Bit Generators, and the tests for the validation of entropy sources. These entropy sources are intended to be combined with Deterministic Random Bit Generator mechanisms that are specified in SP 800-90A to construct Random Bit Generators, as specified in SP 800-90C. Why buy an eBook when you can download a PDF for free? First you gotta find it and make sure it’s the latest version, not always easy. It’s much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com Unlike a PDF, this eBook allows easy page navigation because we bookmarked the Chapters and Appendices. (Don’t judge based on the free sample because that functionality is not activated on the free sample.) Once you buy a copy you will see how easy it is to get to the information you seek - fast.
