The hardware secure module is the common example of Root-of-Trust that used in cryptographic system, fundamentally it is generating, managing and provide protection to the cryptographic keys and performing cryptographic functions within its secure environments. A random number generator (RNG) is one of the critical components in hardware Root-off-Trust, since one of the most important elements in securing cryptographic system is the keys generation. A cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG) is a pseudorandom number generator with properties that suitable to be used in cryptography systems for the keys generation. There are few CSPRNG standardized under NIST SP 800-90A Rev.1 which is Hash_DRBG, HMAC_DRBG and CTR_DRBG. Both Hash_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG is hash based DRBG. This project is performing the study of Hash_DRBG algorithm and understand that the core of the DRBG is the hash function.
