AES attack

An attack has been found for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm: AES crypto compromised by ‘groundbreaking’ attack. The new attack cuts the time to about half what a brute force attack would take, which means it would still take trillions of years, so this this isn’t a reason to stop using AES. (There’s really nothing more secure.) This might motivate people to look into developing newer algorithms.
