What is the difference between a 128-bit and a 40-bit encryption browser?
The difference between a 40-bit (international) and a 128-bit (domestic, or strong) encryption is a matter of degrees. Software using 128-bit encryption is roughly 300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times stronger than 40-bit encryption. Note: The U. S. Government restricts the use of 128-bit encryption to citizens and permanent residents of the U. S. and Canada, i.e., browsers that use 128-bit encryption may only be downloaded to locations in the United States and Canada.
