Microsoft announces deprecation of 1024-bit RSA keys in Windows

Hi All

 

Microsoft has announced that RSA keys shorter than 2048 bits will soon be deprecated in Windows Transport Layer Security (TLS) to provide increased security.

@Early_AdopterMy thoughts are perhaps older versions of Windows, may not be able to handle larger key sizes?  And certainly they would not cope with Post Quantum Cryptography algorithms neither.
