scope:
This Standard defines techniques for the generation of random bits that shall be used whenever ASC X9 Standards require the use of a random number or random bitstring for cryptographic purposes. The Standard consists of four parts:
• Part 1: Overview and Basic Principles
• Part 2: Random Number Generation: Entropy Sources
• Part 3: Random Number Generation: Deterministic Random Bit Generator Mechanisms
• Part 4: Random Number Generation: Random Bit Generator Construction
This Standard does not address random key-stream generation for a stream cipher, as this would be done in a Standard specifying a stream-cipher algorithm.
