Citrix Systems Product Literature Sample
This product literature shows how to meet 21st century security requirements by using 2048-bit SSL keys without introducing performance bottlenecks.
The U.S. National Institute of Standards (NIST) has advised that the 1024-bit RSA cryptographic keys that underlie web site security today may be subject to compromise in the near future. While 2048-bit keys make it almost a billion times harder to break the key, they require much more processing power in servers or application delivery controllers (ADCs) to maintain adequate SSL performance.
