Richard,
not at all... pgp can do 1024 bits... gzip is too common a format...
RCA is considered secure above 40 or even 128 bits keys for financial data.
Considering insurance companies or lawyers would be prime infovore for
medical data,
I'd put 40 to 1024 keys depending on the person's wish/wealth...
Buildin a plugin should be painless for good c coder.
source code abounds...
Though you could always crack these things,
it'll take a masive nut cracker to do it!
Data obfuscation (inserting dirt in the message) is also great but if the
code is there
it could be easy to reverse engineer...
cheers,
Xavier
