"At least". Does the bank has contracted anyone with enough knowledge of cryptography to make educated assumptions about the strength of the different algorithms in GnuPG? Rijndael also has its weaknesses, wether it will remain as strong as the other ciphers with equal key length remains to be seen. BTW, are those laws there really that detailed? Does it mean that if Rijndael gets broken sending it in any weak cipher would suffice? -- ir. J.C.A.
