> Meanwhile everything from ubuntu's apt-get to my connection to HN is secured with 2048-bit RSA - an algorithm invented in 1977 and in widespread use since at least 1995. That’s a bit misleading, considering RSA is only used for certificate verification. Key exchange and symmetric encryption is handled by somewhat more recent algorithms (ECDH / AES-GCM). |
