Description

Random-number generation support helps applications obtain entropy from Linux sources for simulations, identifiers, or security-sensitive workflows. It is useful when software needs a dedicated library for random bytes or numbers.

This is a randomness library, not a complete cryptographic design. Security depends on entropy sources, API use, seeding behavior, and whether the surrounding protocol is reviewed.
