why OpenBSD cut away the start of the RC4 stream (don't remember how many bytes) to make backtracking harder Yes, everybody does that. But how many bytes you drop matters; over the years the recommendations have gone from 256 bytes to 512 bytes to 768 bytes to 1536 bytes to 3072 bytes as attacks have gotten better. |
