About this question

 How many characters do I need to type for my key if I use AES 128 bit or 256 bit?  While searching about this on the internet, I was able to grasp that the user may want to limit the:

  • "amount of information protected by a given key" "amount of exposure if a single key is compromised" "time available for attempts to penetrate physical, procedural, and logical access" "period within which information may be compromised by inadvertent disclosure" "time available for computationally intensive cryptanalytic attacks"
