With computing power continuing to increase one way or the other, any encryption algorithm being as strong as its weakest link, we can be assured that ultimate security is a progressive and continuous pursuit that will never be achieved. The papers on quantum communication and the physical security of those lines also have weakest links which are where the (authorized) listeners tap the information.
