A client asked me today about where he could find evidence of the relative strength of different encryption algorithms, when all are restricted to 40-bit keys. He assumed dot-Gov was going to restrict his export product to the 40-bit limit, but he wanted to provide the strongest security he could within that limitation. How should I have answered him?
