How much software has been updated to use stronger DH either ECC or 2048 bit prime field? Is there an easy way to check if a VPN provider has updated? The ASI

  Run your private key through the second command here: http://etherhack.co.uk/asymmetric/docs/rsa_key_breakdown.html http://etherhack.co.uk/asymmetric/docs/rsa_key_breakdown.htm...

      Care to clarify why not?

        Sorry, I thought this was a troll comment to get someone to upload their private key.

          That was my first impression to. Why is that impression incorrect?

            "man openssl"

            The "command" is a local command you can run, not a web service to upload keys to. So it's not an attempt to trick people into doing something dangerous (although it might not be a great idea to display private key material on your screen!). But I'm not convinced that this command will answer the question; if you take the TLS analogy, you can have a client certificate with a 4096-bit RSA key but you can then use that to authenticate to a server with a 768-bit DH parameter! So these parameter sizes are independent.

              Gotcha! Thank you :)
