Random is not random
Quote:
/dev/random should be suitable for uses that need very high quality randomness such as one-time pad or key generation.
When the entropy pool is empty, reads from /dev/random will block until additional environmental noise is gathered.
A read from the /dev/urandom device will not block waiting for more entropy.
