DES is still well beyond the reach of one guy with a laptop, entire bitcoin network is roughly what you need to bruteforce DES in few minutes.
- oakwhiz 12y agoThere exists at least one OpenCL implementation of a DES cracker - a modern laptop GPU could certainly accelerate the process considerably.
- dfox 12y agoYes, that is why I related required computation power to bitcoin. But still this considerable acceleration does not make it feasible with one laptop or even high-end workstation.
