Issue: Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
Description: The use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm is an unnecessary risk that may result in the disclosure of sensitive information.
The use of a non-standard algorithm is dangerous because a determined attacker may be able to break the algorithm and compromise whatever data has been protected. Well-known techniques may exist to break the algorithm.
