Hi Bobinson , i think the allowed encryption in us is 56-bit[1] , the 56-bit key size can produce 72 thousand quadrillion key combinations [2] approximately 70,000 billion, and the thinking machine break that code in few seconds , it can be the worst case time complexity (the key with max size, can be... :) ) . I believe "It is estimated the system performs 70,000 billion operations to decrypt an effective crypto code in few seconds" is a better way to present the idea.
thank you for the reply.
