A group of prominent researchers published a paper blasting the RSA cryptosystem as woefully insecure. RSA said there’s nothing wrong with the RSA algorithm, it’s an implementation issue mainly with random-number key generation. Arjen Lenstra, the cryptography researcher behind the paper, signs off the week with a few thoughts about it all. The paper concluded: “Overall, over the data we collected, 1024-bit RSA provides. RSA provides 99.8% security at best” Lenstra: “If properly implemented, RSA is fine””]
