I’m no expert, but a serialization format cannot change any inherent properties about the key in question. It’s just a matter of how it’s presented. The key is the same (vulnerable or not).
Can anyone tell me if using 3072 bit keys would have made a difference? Everywhere I look, 3072 bit RSA/256 bit ECDSA/256 bit hash functions/128 bit AES (=128 bits of security) seems to be the standard. Why choose 2048 bit keys for a national ID card?
- mcpherrinm 9y agoI'm not sure where you're looking but around my parts, 1024, 2048, 4096 bit RSA is most common. Most of those are 2048 bit. I can't think of a 3072 bit RSA key I've run into in the wild. That's usually TLS, GPG, SSH keys.
