Russian ban?

Does Russia really has banned using of strong crypto? Where is the source of that info?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.85.50.2 (talk • contribs)

oppose merger w/ cryptographically strong

Strong cryptography is a noun, referring to any of a semi-mythical group of cryptosytems which are especially hard (or even impossible) to break. Cryptographically strong is a related adjective which applies to various cryptographic entities such as algorithms, protocols, and even cryptosystems. These are not the same concepts, though related. Putting them in the same article will induce confusion in the mind of many Average Readers (who are confronting a twisty subject anyway) and this should be avoided. Parsimony is an admirable thing, but not when it increases the opportunity for confusion. ww 21:19, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Differences wrt Security level

Note that Security level formally defines the cipher strength. The lead of this article should explain the difference (if none, a merge should be discussed) and explicitly point to the Security level article. Based on the sources, this seems to be an article about a legal definition. Comments are hereby solicited, especially from @Maxal, Alexander Davronov, and ArnoldReinhold: Dimawik (talk) 19:14, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tried to improve. Note that the lead still contains a paragraph (starting with "Demonstrating the resistance") that has no cites, and, while technically correct, has little to do with the subject of the article. My proposal is to delete it entirely. Dimawik (talk) 09:21, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article is more about cybersecurity context of cryptography rather then on technical definition. Personally I only wrote a part on Russian law. I didn't edit the rest of article though. AXONOV (talk) ⚑ 10:12, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
