The Data Encryption Standard [DES] is susceptible to brute force
attacks which are well within the reach of a modestly financed
adversary. As a result, DES has been deprecated, and replaced by the
Advanced Encryption Standard [AES]. Nonetheless, many applications
continue to rely on DES for security, and designers and implementers
continue to provide support for it in new applications. While this
is not always inappropriate, it frequently is. This note discusses
DES security implications, so that designers and implementers can
make judicious decisions regarding its use.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
