Same Seed in Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

Phase: Architecture and Design

Do not reuse PRNG seeds. Consider a PRNG that periodically re-seeds itself as needed from a high quality pseudo-random output, such as hardware devices.

Phase: Architecture and Design; Requirements

Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks

Use products or modules that conform to FIPS 140-2 to avoid obvious entropy problems, or use the more recent FIPS 140-3 if possible.
