I doubt he can say anything; it is all classified. However, it is almost certainly the case that the NSA's software is more advanced than anything publicly used:

1. They can read all the publicly available journals, so they are not going to be any worse

2. They hire top researchers in CS and math, and have internal, classified journals on their cutting edge work
