9 ms·Only for that byte -- the overall keyspace is 184 bits instead of 192 bits.by daeken 15y agoOnly for that byte -- the overall keyspace is 184 bits instead of 192 bits.esrauch 15y agoI think his point is that 2 raised to 192 is 256 times larger than 2 raised to 184, meaning that you are getting 1/256 as many possible keys by reducing the key length by 8 bits.daeken 15y agoAhh, that's a good point. Thanks for clarifying.
