RSA 1024-bits Key Encryption Cracked!

I actually did this last week in my sleep but when I woke up I forgot how I did it. True story.

That article does not do the paper justice. 104 hours it took, but an 81 processor bank. That's still like a year and a half of computation time. Plus, you have to have physical access to the machine to make it susceptible to the attack...
If I'm next to a server for four continuous days (100+ hrs) mucking with the voltage regulator, the have other security problems besides their encryption. But hey, this is all about academia, not real world, right?

QFT. While a brilliant solution... I'd hold my breath regarding a "zero-day" 'sploit.

if i stare at a server long enough, i can burn it with my mind.

Also, don't we have 4096-bit RSA now anyways?
