This comes as an unwelcome warning that underscores the difficulty of key generation in the real world.

We were very careful: we did not intercept any traffic, we did not sniff any networks ... We went to databases that contained public information and downloaded public keys.

Their secret keys are accessible to anyone who takes the trouble to redo our work. ... 1024-bit RSA provides 99.8 percent security at best.

Some people may say that 99.8 percent security is fine.

The fact is, if these numbers had the entropy that they were supposed to have, the probability of even one of these events happening in 7 million public keys would be vanishingly small.

We thought that was rather startling.

We're currently working around the clock to get notifications to all of the parties that are affected by this.

Leonard Max Adleman 16 quotes

The lack of sophistication of ...

The lack of sophistication of our methods and findings make it hard for us to believe that what we have presented is new, in particular to agencies and parties that are known for their curiosity in such matters.

Leonard Max Adleman 16 quotes

Our only conclusion is that th...

Our only conclusion is that there is not just one cause for all of these problems ... This leads to our conclusion that unless you can totally trust your random number generator, RSA is not a good algorithm to choose.

If you have a collision, you only affect one other person. You can hurt them and they can hurt you, but you haven't made it public to everybody and their mother.

As we say in the title don't panic ... Not everything over SSL is broken.

Embedded devices have a history of problems in generating entropy for keys ... We're seeing the same embedded devices from the same manufacturer generating the same primes.

I hate to say it but this does have implications for web-based commerce because people can mount man-in-the-middle attacks.

If you can programme events at a molecular level in cells, you can cure or kill cells which are sick or in trouble and leave the other ones intact. You cannot do this with electronics.

We build the template in the form of synthetic genes and the cell turns them into components ... So we are hijacking the pathway that already exists.

You could have a model of a DNA circuit written in DSD, which interfaces with a model of the cell machinery written in GEC.
