How is NSA breaking so much crypto?


Mildly geeky but an interesting theory on how the NSA beats fairly tough encryption.

  1. That's unsurprising and yet disappointing.  We've all assumed for some time that NSA was simply throwing enough dollars and compute cycles at things to brute force it.  And we've known Moore's Law was against us. Still, it's sad to see.
