Why each option
The International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), with its 128-bit key, remains computationally secure against brute-force attacks.
The International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), with its 128-bit key, is considered to be very strong. As of current knowledge, it has not been successfully cracked by brute-force methods, meaning that trying every possible key is still computationally infeasible.
This statement is false because the IDEA algorithm has maintained its resistance to brute-force attacks since its inception.
