Because of moore's law, widely-used encryption programs currently employed by banks and ecommerce sites are now easily penetrated by brute-force attacks that can be employed by hackers using just a handful of simple desktop computers. true / false.

False

Explanation:

Moore's law observes the principle that the computing speed and capability of computers doubles after every two years, because of increases in the number of transistors a microchip can contain. This increase in coputational power will rather help banks and e-commerce sites (the defenders) much more than it will help the attackers. This is so because cryptographic systems are designed so that a small amount of extra work by the defender leads to an much much greater amount of work for the attacker.

this seems to be in the wrong category. but i'll take some free points my dude

posting this in wrong category will result in people seeing it who won't know the answer.

yes, but you must first make sure that you'll be able to make your turn or you can crash into other vehicles.
