Crypto Weakkeystrength

The application is generating an RSA key that is less than the recommended 2048 bits. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) deprecated signing Digital Certificates that contained RSA Public Keys of 1024 bits in December 2010. While 1024-bit RSA keys have not been factored yet, advances in compute may make it possible in the near future. T
