| May 26, 2014 at 15:43 | comment | added | hunter | The first approach you describe is quite similar to HKDF, a KBKDF (Key-Based Key Derivation Function), whereas PBKDF2 and Scrypt are PBKDFs (Password-Based). HKDF is intended to derive key material from input that is already cryptographically random and sufficiently long. Reading this, this, and this should set your mind at ease. | |
