COVER // CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW TIME COMPLEXITY IMPACTS THE SECURITY OF A SYSTEM WHEN HANDLING CRYPTOGRAPHIC OPERATIONS?

Time complexity directly impacts the security of cryptographic operations as it influences the feasibility of brute-force attacks. If the algorithm has linear time complexity, attackers can apply more resources to compromise it compared to a logarithmic one, which is much harder to brute-force.
