that hasn't been too successful in the past.

brute forcing does require a non-trivial amount of resources

Except if you have a secret key somewhere.. :p, which in politics, will be probably impossible. On Wed, Apr 1, 2015 at 3:57 AM, Peter Gutmann <pgut001@cs.auckland.ac.nz> wrote:

That's not such a good idea, because when you swap your state back in again you can't decrypt it any more and end up with a kernel panic.
