Provides information about the FIPS operating status of
crypto and the underlying libcrypto library. If crypto was built
with FIPS support this can be either
enabled
(when
running in FIPS mode) or
not_enabled
. For other builds
this value is always

FIPS mode returns the restricted list of available
algorithms.
Enables (
Enable = true
) or disables (

true
if
the operation was successful or

otherwise.
Note that to enable FIPS mode succesfully, OTP must be built with the configure option

Set the seed for PRNG to the given binary. This calls the
RAND_seed function from openssl. Only use this if the system
you are running on does not have enough "randomness" built in.
Normally this is when
strong_rand_bytes/1
raises
error:low_entropy
Types
Lo, Hi, N = integer()
Generate a random number
N, Lo =< N < Hi.
Uses the
crypto
library pseudo-random number generator.
Hi
must be larger than
Lo
.
Generates N bytes randomly uniform 0..255, and returns the
result in a binary. Uses a cryptographically secure prng seeded and
periodically mixed with operating system provided entropy. By default
this is the
RAND_bytes
method from OpenSSL.
May raise exception
error:low_entropy
in case the random generator
failed due to lack of secure "randomness".
Creates state object for
random number generation
,
in order to generate cryptographically strong random numbers
(based on OpenSSL's
BN_rand_range
),
and saves it in the process dictionary before returning it as well.
See also

and
rand_seed_s/0
.
When using the state object from this function the
rand
functions using it
may raise exception
error:low_entropy
in case the random generator
failed due to lack of secure "randomness".
Example
_ = crypto:rand_seed(),
_IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % [1; 42]
_FloatValue = rand:uniform(). % [0.0; 1.0[
Creates state object for
random number generation
,
in order to generate cryptographically strongly random numbers
(based on OpenSSL's

).
See also
rand:seed_s/1
.
When using the state object from this function the
rand
functions using it
may raise exception
error:low_entropy
in case the random generator
failed due to lack of secure "randomness".
The state returned from this function can not be used
to get a reproducable random sequence as from
the other
functions,
since reproducability does not match cryptographically safe.
The only supported usage is to generate one distinct
random sequence from this start state.
Creates state object for
random number generation
,
in order to generate cryptographically strong random numbers.
See also
rand:seed/1
and
rand_seed_alg_s/1
.
When using the state object from this function the
rand
functions using it
may raise exception
error:low_entropy
in case the random generator

The cache size can be changed from its default value using the
crypto app's
configuration parameter
rand_cache_size
.
Example
_ = crypto:rand_seed_alg(crypto_cache),
_IntegerValue = rand:uniform(42), % [1; 42]
_FloatValue = rand:uniform(). % [0.0; 1.0[
OTP 21.0
Types
Alg = crypto | crypto_cache
Creates state object for
random number generation
,
in order to generate cryptographically strongly random numbers.
See also
rand:seed_s/1
.
If
Alg
is
crypto
this function behaves exactly like
rand_seed_s/0
.
If
Alg
is
crypto_cache
this function
fetches random data with OpenSSL's
RAND_bytes
and caches it for speed using an internal word size
of 56 bits that makes calculations fast on 64 bit machines.
When using the state object from this function the
rand
functions using it
may raise exception
error:low_entropy
in case the random generator
failed due to lack of secure "randomness".
The cache size can be changed from its default value using the
crypto app's
configuration parameter
rand_cache_size
.
The state returned from this function can not be used
to get a reproducable random sequence as from
the other
functions,
since reproducability does not match cryptographically safe.
In fact since random data is cached some numbers may
get reproduced if you try, but this is unpredictable.
The only supported usage is to generate one distinct
random sequence from this start state.
Initializes the state for use in streaming AES encryption using Counter mode (CTR).
Key
is the AES key and must be either 128, 192, or 256 bits long.

in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.
Return the name (eg a description) for the engine, or an empty binary if there is no name set.
The function raises a
error:badarg
if the parameters are in wrong format.
It may also raise the exception
error:notsup
in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.
List the id's of all engines in OpenSSL's internal list.
It may also raise the exception
error:notsup
in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.
See also the chapter
Engine Load
in the User's Guide.
May raise exception
error:notsup
in case engine functionality is not supported by the underlying
OpenSSL implementation.
Loads the OpenSSL engine given by
EngineId
and the path to the dynamic library
implementing the engine. This function is the same as calling
ensure_engine_loaded/3
with
EngineMethods
set to a list of all the possible methods. An error tuple is
returned if the engine can't be loaded.
The function raises a
error:badarg
if the parameters are in wrong format.
It may also raise the exception
error:notsup
in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.

Engine Load

Loads the OpenSSL engine given by
EngineId
and the path to the dynamic library
implementing the engine. This function differs from the normal engine_load in that sense it
also add the engine id to the internal list in OpenSSL. Then in the following calls to the function
it just fetch the reference to the engine instead of loading it again.
An error tuple is returned if the engine can't be loaded.
The function raises a
error:badarg
if the parameters are in wrong format.
It may also raise the exception
error:notsup
in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.

Engine Load
in the User's Guide.
Unloads an engine loaded with the
ensure_engine_loaded
function.
It both removes the label from the OpenSSL internal engine list and unloads the engine.
This function is the same as calling
ensure_engine_unloaded/2
with
EngineMethods
set to a list of all the possible methods. An error tuple is
returned if the engine can't be unloaded.
The function raises a
error:badarg
if the parameters are in wrong format.
It may also raise the exception
error:notsup
in case there is
no engine support in the underlying OpenSSL implementation.
