operation on the version that was downgraded to the previous version.

The Year 2010 Encryption Problem
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) compiles the types of encryption that
U.S. government agencies should use. The NIST recommends transitioning to encryption types with
larger key size and advanced security after 2010. Although responding to this issue is not
mandatory, it is recommended. A large number of devices and systems utilizing encryption will
be affected by this new encryption standard.
