Cryptographers have a saying. Encryption is like a single fence post which is a thousand miles high. You're not likely to break the encryption, but it doesn't do you any good if the attacker can just go around it. Find a weaker link in the chain: Poor passwords, social engineering, bribery, good ol' fashion espionage, etc.

Encryption? They're pretty good at it.
