Observation: Prediction resistance applies to all SP800-90(A) DRBGs, whereas the derivation function is only for cipher based DRBGs. > > Also, as an aside, if we are enumerating the various SP800-90(A) DRBG types, I assert we should leave off the Dual_EC DRBGs, if that hasn't already been considered. ;-> I think they should remain with enumeration values specified (like we have for other enumerations) and perhaps we could include a usage guide note on the issue if someone can come up with acceptable wording for such a note. We haven't made any specific recommendations in terms algorithms to not use within KMIP to date and remember we do list DES and things like RC2 within the algorithm list - see 9.1.3.2.13 within the KMIP 1.2 committee specification draft.
