If you have responsibility for security anywhere, or even for your own
systems, the default assumption is that any encryption can be broken
given sufficient time and resources. I would assume that NSA etc can
already do that, but more dangerous are the state level actors in
places like China and Russia.

Making that assumption, you can then form a strategy to mitigate the
risk...
