| Mar 22, 2018 at 15:07 | comment | added | diagprov | "rendered unbreakable from a theoretical perspective" no it isn't. Theoretically unbreakable is the one time pad. All block ciphers are theoretically breakable, the definition of security relies on the advantage over non-random distribution being negligible and only the one time pad reduces that to zero. Theoretically unbroken maybe, if there is no cryptanalysis reducing security. Moreover, brute-forcing a 128-bit wouldn't take "a couple of years" and "a datacentre", it would take more energy than the whole of humanity can feasibly produce right now dedicated to that single task. | |
