Was wondering if anyone could help me with short explainations on the cryptanalysis of SKIPJACK and DES. If ya hit www.sauge.com/crypt you might get a better idea of what i'm trying to accomplish. Vague explanations are OK. Dont want long drawn out explainations on the implementation of an attack (source code, proofs, statistical analysis and the like), just a short explaination of the attack. Thanks all, Scott -- How has the government interfered in your life today?
