thanks a lot. but i'm still confused of the cipher strength and
key length. i always think 40-bit should be the key length of
symmetric cipher algorithm and 512-bit is the key length of
asymmetric cipher algorithm. 40-bit data encryption aglorithm
is always corresponding to 512-bit certificate, and 128-bit
to 1024/2048-bit. is that right?
thanks!!
