Get a similar Cryptografic (strong) Randomizer - CSPRNG
Posted: Sat Feb 03, 2018 7:20 pm
With Quantum computers pointing their nose...keep Making LC internaly stronger.
As far as I got it, local LC Salt creation depends on Random numbers/strings
LC "random(99)" is fine for generating weak random strings for games etc...
But when it comes to generating passwords or salt them and deal with data transfer, it would be great to have a much stronger local, offline, equivalent of the random_bytes PHP funcion (or whatever other equivalent of CSPRNG).
So far it seems we do depend on PHP as an "external" - connected - ramdomizing solution...
I have no idea if its even possible to code this feaure in a future LC version but Increasing security today sounds to me like a priority before some Quantums system starts breaking our encryptions (and stacks?! 
) as easy as MD5

Code: Select all
<?php
$bytes = random_bytes(5);
bin2hex($bytes);
?>
