      If you burn 110K in cash.
      And have a team of cyber security experts.

      Today, yes. But in six months it'll be a script and $30K in compute power. In two years it'll be $500 of AWS time.

      These newer algorithms that require specific amounts of RAM and have time variables in them to force the decryption to take time are pretty interesting.

      Hmmmm.... I'd be interested to see how that works and, more importantly, how does that impact proper decryption versus a cracking attempt?
