Date: Mon, 1 Sep 2014 22:59:28 +0200 From: Krisztián Pintér <pinterkr@...il.com> To: discussions@...sword-hashing.net Subject: friendly warning about randomness tests the diehard, testu01, dieharder, etc test suites are not cryptographic tools. failing these tests is a clear break, and at least calls for another postprocessing step (together with an assessment of actual entropy content of the raw output). however, passing such tests mean exactly nothing in crypto context.
