Una cifra, relacionada con la cantidad de trabajo
requerido para violar un algoritmo o dispositivo criptográfico. Es frecuente
expresar la fortaleza de un sistema de cifra en bits: 80, 112, 128, 192, 512,
(Also bits of security)
A number associated with the
amount of work (that is, the number of operations) that is required to break a
cryptographic algorithm or system. In this Recommendation, security strength is
specified in bits and is a specific value from the set {80, 112, 128, 192,
256}. [NIST-SP800-57:2007]
