According to http://www.hk-imail.com/inews/public/article_v.cfm?articleid=28867&intcatid=1, some teenagers "reportedly cracked an encryption technology called Data Encryption Standard (DES)". I'm skeptical, but I thought I'd toss it out. Anyone have any details? --Steve Bellovin, http://www.research.att.com/~smb http://www.wilyhacker.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo@wasabisystems.com
