What cipher's are going away? I currently use 256-bit AES. Will that
one be around? TIA

Our firewall uses 1024 bit encryption!
(yeah, a bit of overkill!)

What algorithm do your firewalls use? RSA? AES? I use 256-bit AES
because that algorithm seems to be a good trade off of speed and
security.


it's IPSEC; hope I wasn't too misleading:
