Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with random number generators are described. One system embodiment includes a random number generator logic that may produce an initial random number from a first set of three inputs. The system embodiment may receive the three inputs from sources including an internal counter entropy source (ICES), an internal arbitrary entropy source (IAES), and an external entropy source (EES). The system embodiment may generate a first random number from a first set of three inputs (e.g., value from ICES, value from IAES, value from EES) but may then generate subsequent random numbers from a different set of three inputs (e.g., value from ICES, value from IAES, previous random number).
