Well implemented modern crypto is still thought of as not being crackable |
| 12 |
by anyone. The increase in computing power can be offset with increase in |
| 13 |
key length. |

There is concern that quantum computing could change this and work is being |
| 16 |
done to come up with new quantum resistant crypto standards. Bad random |
| 17 |
number generators, code errors etc are ways around crypto but there's no |
| 18 |
public info that, say AES, has any fundamental flaw that makes feasible to |
| 19 |
crack. |
