If you use the multithreaded version of the CRT, all functions are thread safe, because any thread-specific information is stored in TLS. rand_s actually doesn’t use state information in the first place, since it just calls an OS API, so question of thread-safety doesn’t arise for rand_s. rand(), however depends on a seed value to generate a random number.
