Module win_crypto_ng::random

Cryptographically secure random number generation

Usage

To generate cryptographically secure random numbers, start by opening a RandomNumberGenerator. This can be done either via the open method where you specify the random algorithm to use or with the system_preferred method, where the system default is used. Then, to fill a buffer with random numbers, call the gen_random method.

use win_crypto_ng::random::{RandomAlgorithmId, RandomNumberGenerator};

let mut buffer = [0u8; 32];
let rng = RandomNumberGenerator::open(RandomAlgorithmId::Rng).unwrap();
rng.gen_random(&mut buffer).unwrap();

assert_ne!(&buffer, &[0u8; 32]);
