Decrypting a DES- or RSA-encrypted document isn't going ]to be an "easy walk" for anybody. Well, I am not a hacker (just a fishery biologist :-). However, I may refer to NSA comments and several interviews concerning Zimmermans PGP algorithm. This material may be found somewhere in the net: A. It seems that anyone "civilian" encryption algorithm is a 2-hours walk to a military scramble specialist. That's what NSA Seniors say, at least. Perhaps Mr. "Lefty" could add any wisdom over the issue :-). B. The US has strict regulations concerning civilian encryption: FBI has access to all encryption technology, by the law. Thus, all encryption software (hardwares microcode) allowed in the market is -luckyly- an easy game to the FBI and other .GOV related agencies.
