That is true for almost all security. It is not impossible to break cryptography, but it is costly enough as to not be viable in most cases. Most of security is about to make it costly enough to break as to not be worth it.

- cykros 1y agoOne time pad cryptography generated with truly random pads with no reuse of keys and no leaks in key transmission being the big exception. But yea, calling it inconvenient for most uses is quite an understatement. It did serve many spies well though during the Cold War using numbers stations, even if the Soviets were known to take short cuts by just having a room full of people randomly hitting keyboards rather than using true randomness.
