That was mainly my concern when I read the news. Its unlikely they are capable of doing that now, but they are certainly working hard on it, and people moving to 512 bit encryption before then will probably result in years of hard work down the drain. But it is still concerning that they even think that 256 bit encryption is crack-able in the foreseeable future.
- pyuser583 5y agoIt’s not that 256 bit encryption will be crackable soon. It’s that flaws in the implementation of the encryption algorithm will allow access to the partial key. So 256 can become 128.
