Regarding better security, I've just found out about an interesting event: Quo Vadis 4 Conference, Friday 26 May 2006, Warsaw, Poland It's interesting because of this: http://www.cryptosystem.net/aes/ "Nicolas T. Courtois has announced that he will make a public demonstration of an algebraic attack that breaks a toy block cipher with about 200 S-boxes (nearly as many as in AES), by solving a system of algebraic equations derived from very few (only 4) plaintexts, ciphertext pairs. The cipher has good diffusion, no special structure that could make it weak, and no known weakness (and probably no weakness whatsoever) other than the low I/O degree of its S-boxes." -- left blank, right bald
