Does anyone have an opinion about which are the best encryption algorithms to use? If you have any technical doc citations this is very useful.
Would you NOT use the U2 Encrypt function simply because it doesn't offer the algorithm you need (or one mandated by your client/employer)? Would you NOT use the U2 Encrypt function simply because it doesn't offer 256 or 512 bit encryption? (Only goes to 168.) Do you think a certain algorithm should be AVOIDed because it's been cracked? I've heard des3 has been cracked, but not sure which mode (cbc, cfb, or ofb) was cracked, or whether it matters. The discussion can take in other encryption methods, openssl, gpg, etc. U2 offers rc4, des3, rc2, rc5 - I'm not listing anything < 128 bit. TIAA, R.
