!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] implies the [Confidentiality] of the [message] is __Computationally Secure__ which implies assuming that any [attacker] is computationally limited. ([Attack Effort])
[{$pagename}] does not account for [Side-channel attacks] or other forms of [Data Leakage] [attacks].
In [cryptography], a major goal is to create [Cryptographic Primitives] with provable [security].
In some cases, [cryptographic] [protocols] are found to be [Information-theoretic Secure]; the one-time pad is a common example. However, [Information-theoretic Secure] cannot always be achieved; in such cases, cryptographers fall back to [{$pagename}].
Roughly speaking, this means that these systems are secure assuming that any adversaries are computationally limited, as all adversaries are in practice. Because hardness of a problem is difficult to prove, in practice certain problems are "assumed" to be difficult.[1]
[{$pagename}] relies that the [Algorithm] (Usually the [Cryptographic] [Algorithm]) has a high enough [Complexity] so that the [Attack Effort] is too high for the [Protected Resource] ([Item of Interest])
