In this module, we learned about modern block ciphers.
Please research a recent (2020 or newer) attack, preferably one from inside the United States, which was in the news and involved encryption or message confidentiality. Please select an attack that you or someone else in this course has not used in any discussion board postings.
For this discussion, please answer the following questions:
What is the real-world scenario you selected? Please provide a link to the article that you found.
What type of attack was involved and what happened in this incident?
Describe the exact type of attack, how it was launched, what systems were affected, and for how long did it last.
What was the monetary value in terms of cost of loss to whomever was attacked?
What did the organization’s security team do to respond to the incident?
What, if anything, would you have done differently to respond to this event?
In today’s world, are block ciphers strong enough to defend against sophisticated attacks such as that from a nation-state actor using AI and/or very large-scale computing power to break it? What is a real-world example of one such attack from a nation-state actor that has occurred since 2020?
