Oh My Gosh!
Intelligence agencies try to work out how to read secret messages?!
If using brute force ('super computers') to break keys is a realistic issue then presumably the wide use of bot-nets by criminals gives the prospect that keys have been broken more widely.
I did like the way that the encrypted files that got detained at the airport were opened - because there was a list of passwords on a bit of paper in the same bag (in a spy film those would have been the self-destruct codes...)
