768-bit RSA Cracked

Though it was inevitable, the 728-bit RSA encryption has been cracked! This means to be truly secure people must use 1024-bit RSA encryption. To crack this encryption, a cluster of computers were used. It took a bit less than half a day and the result was 5 terabytes of data. 1024-bit RSA encryption will be compromised next.
