Description

A library that gathers randomness from CPU timing jitter and exposes it as entropy for random-number generation. Security-sensitive software can use it as one source of unpredictable data.

It is low-level cryptographic infrastructure, not an application to open. Keep it when software depends on this entropy source, especially in environments where reliable randomness matters.
