But the key aspects of the code have been reviewed—it’s just that it’s no longer in a format that can algorithmically be passed to a breaker, and requires intelligent thought to get it to that stage, which would seem to put a bottleneck on attacks.
It’s been reviewed by you. Unless you’re a three-letter agency, that’s extremely unlikely to be thorough enough to say with any confidence that it’s secure.
Hm, actually, it depends on what you’re trying to be secure against. If, say, you’re running a website with a standard installation of something, it can be worth changing it a little bit so that automated scanning tools won’t be able to exploit flaws in it.. There won’t be huge benefit against people deliberately targetting you, though.
