    The resources required for a brute-force attack grow exponentially with increasing key size, not linearly. Although U.S. export regulations historically restricted key lengths to 56-bit symmetric keys (e.g. Data Encryption Standard ), these restrictions are no longer in place, so modern symmetric algorithms typically use computationally ...
