Hello everybody
as you can see my key is about to expire and I need to create a new one.
When I created it I didn't know which algorithm was the best choice and
I just chose the first option. Now I still don't know which is the best
to choose and why.

If you want to be standard conform and your goal is best
interoperability you need to use DSA and Elgamal. These are the MUST

Not really. Some places have to conform with regulations or laws which
might demand RSA. Some people

While I agree that a cryppie's definition of "break" is not the same as
a practical break, I think it's dangerous to make predictions about how
long it takes a cryptographic
Hi, I'm sorry to jump right in with a dumb question, but I've tried doing
some research myself and I have to confess to much of this being way over my
head.
I work for a University that uses GnuPG to encrypt files to send out to
various vendors.
We're having a very odd situation right now with o

Have you tried a test decryption on your end? E.g., encrypt the file

I have not heard of a SHA-1 collision yet. IIRC it still takes
something in the range of 2^60.
I should not have ta

Rechberger and Cannière had some interesting things at CRYPTO 2006--I
don't recall the details, but it sounded like a partial preimage attack,
not just a simple collision. They o

There was a lengthy discussion on this list about the differences between
RSA and DSA a few weeks ago.
