Description

A Haskell library for obtaining cryptographically strong entropy on most platforms. It is used to seed or support security-sensitive operations that need unpredictable random bytes.

Developers use it in cryptographic libraries, token generation, key generation, and secure protocols. Entropy failure should be handled as a serious error rather than silently falling back to weak randomness.
