- Another question, gentlemen, if you would:
- Is there a program available that actually uses the RSA algorithm for the
- encryption?
- When one says they "assume the spooks have been able to break the DES" is
- that assumed to be in CBC or only in ECB mode?
- Anyone know the longest product of primes that has been factored, time
- taken, and what increase there might be in the next 20 years in speed?
- Again, thanks in advance
