You actually think that DES is too weak when it takes all the hackers in the known unix world to stage an attempt which has been so far unsuccessful? Hmm... different point of view I guess. -Justin Wolf (jjwolf@bleeding.com) -----Original Message----- From: C Matthew Curtin [SMTP:cmcurtin@research.megasoft.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 1997 11:25 PM To: Golan Klinger Cc: rsacrack@vex.net; hackers@freebsd.org; deschall@gatekeeper.megasoft.com Subject: Re: First place. > Name/Address Blocks Time Last Avg > Done Working Checked-in Mkeys/sec1 > > rsacrack@vex.net 38384 19.8 days 22 secs ago 6.032 > crackerz@best.net 38205 19.8 days 1 mins ago 6.01 > Wwe're in first now.

First place of what? :-) We (the deschall group) are doing > 500Mkeys/sec. Plus, we'll soon be able to traverse firewalls, which we hope will significantly increase the number of available clients. Our status reports are available at http://www.frii.com/~rcv/desstat.htm Stop playing around with <10Mkeys/sec and join us. :-) That's a lot of keys, but if everyone can coordinate their efforts together, the faster we'll get through the keyspace and prove that DES is too weak for real applications... -- Matt Curtin Chief Scientist Megasoft, Inc. cmcurtin@research.megasoft.com http://www.research.megasoft.com/people/cmcurtin/ I speak only for myself Death to small keys. Crack DES NOW! http://www.frii.com/~rcv/deschall.htm
