Maybe not. . . : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33RbRid1deo AES and RSA research has been around for ~400 years. Eliptic curves have been around for ~30 years. AES has had a huge budget for being broken and seeing as it is the predecessor to md5 which was broken before-hand it is not out of the reach of someone who can write up an implementation to use for attacks. The blackhat talk suggests that eliptic curves may be less succeptable to breach even, though it is still up to debate in the crypto communities. There are several open source solutions to factoring and although 40 hours may seem like a long time to decrypt one single encrypted session, it will be easier with more parallel-able GPU or FPGA hardware/newer operating system abstractions that are able to compute more. There is also more research going into making SAT solvers that

are parallel so if there is a factor-able solution it may be more do-able. Or if there is a newer breakthrough attack that comes up which does sometimes happen. Many past standards have been broken. In crypto things being broken are usually a matter of research, time, and a budget helps. For example a linux distribution that will also make use of the GPU is currently in work: https://github.com/wbsun/kgpu Regardless attacks will still continue to be mostly "side channel" attacks as man in the middle type attacks are usually the easiest way to subvert data exchanges.
