Deterministic random bit generator (DRBG)
Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG)
PRNG

  A deterministic computational process that has one or more inputs called "seeds", and it outputs a sequence of values that appears to be random according to specified statistical tests. A cryptographic PRNG has the additional property that the output is unpredictable, given that the seed is not known.

  A deterministic algorithm which, given a truly random binary sequence of length k, outputs a binary sequence of length l >> k which appears to be random. The input to the generator is called the seed, while the output is called a pseudorandom bit sequence.

  An RBG that includes a DRBG mechanism and (at least initially) has access to a randomness source. The DRBG produces a sequence of bits from a secret initial value called a seed, along with other possible inputs. A DRBG is often called a Pseudorandom Number (or Bit) Generator. Contrast with NRBG.

  An RBG that includes a DRBG mechanism and (at least initially) has access to a source of entropy input. The DRBG produces a sequence of bits from a secret initial value called a seed, along with other possible inputs. A DRBG is often called a Pseudorandom Number (or Bit) Generator.

  A random bit generator that includes a DRBG algorithm and (at least initially) has access to a source of randomness. The DRBG produces a sequence of bits from a secret initial value called a seed, along with other possible inputs. A cryptographic DRBG has the additional property that the output is unpredictable, given that the seed is not known. A DRBG is sometimes also called a Pseudo-random Number Generator (PRNG) or a deterministic random number generator.

  An algorithm that produces a sequence of bits that are uniquely determined from an initial value called a seed. The output of the DRBG “appears” to be random, i.e., the output is statistically indistinguishable from random values. A cryptographic DRBG has the additional property that the output is unpredictable, given that the seed is not known. A DRBG is sometimes also called a Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) or a deterministic random number generator.
