Comment Future of Cryptology (Score 2) 146
In the field of cryptology, i think there have been many major advances like
+ fiestel networks
+ combining operators (like in IDEA)
+ data dependent rotations (like in RC)
Do you believe that quantum cyrptography is the next foreseable step.
What do you believe the effect quantum computers will have on cryptanalysis, and the development of cryptology.
If you can generate a one time pad through quantum cryptology, you only need xor, as that is secure as its otp.
I understand, that quantum compuetrs would be able to solve "very hard" problems, like solving discreet logarithms in a fine field.
What major algorithms would be deemed insecure, when quantum computers came about.
Many entries to the AES are essentially fiestel networks, do you foresee this system ever being broken (I know you think that giving dates is stupid)
Also, what AES submission did you least expect to be dropped for round 2. And apart from your submission, what do you think has the most chance of becoming the aes.
Many people are finding ways around the key escrow policies, and the export policies. Like the private doorbell system. Do you think that these embargos on freedom will ever be lifted, or will the us government remain as privicy envading, and paranoid as ever.
Do you see people using stenography instead of encryption. Especially for file systems ?
Do you think deniable encryption would stand up in court ? (E.g using rivest's chaffing and winnowing system)
Is it possible to have a deniable and probablicstic crypto system ?
And what do you feel is the most secure algorithm, and hash function now, as before in your book it was idea, but now wiht the aes systems ? which is the most secure?
