Its valid point however encryptions only go so far once system cracked you then have to change it suppose thats the expense.
Tetra was deemed uncrackable its now been cracked by maths lecturer at uni. Geniuses cant stop giving themselves the challenge of breaking the unbreakable. Not problem but usually that information finds it way in the wrong hands.
