=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
This command outputs I<num> pseudo-random bytes after seeding
|
||||
the random number generator once.
|
||||
This command generates I<num> random bytes using a cryptographically
|
||||
secure pseudo random number generator (CSPRNG).
|
||||
|
||||
The random bytes are generated using the L<RAND_bytes(3)> function,
|
||||
which provides a security level of 256 bits, provided it managed to
|
||||
seed itself successfully from a trusted operating system entropy source.
|
||||
Otherwise, the command will fail with a non-zero error code.
|
||||
For more details, see L<RAND_bytes(3)>, L<RAND(7)>, and L<RAND_DRBG(7)>.
