Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for booting an electronic device. For example, a process can include initiating a boot procedure for the electronic device. The process can also include determining a hardware pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) is inoperable, obtaining a seed value from a read-only memory, based on the determination that the hardware PRNG is inoperable, initiating a software PRNG based on the seed value, obtaining a pseudo-random number from the software PRNG, and continuing the boot procedure using the obtained pseudo-random number.
