The rapid development of quantum technologies leads to new possibilities applying certain cryptographic attacks against symmetric algorithms. This paper discusses a verifying method an different approach to applying an "Brute force" attack on 256 - AES encrypted voice stream. Verification is performed after the correct decryption is selected from the set of decryptions. The purpose of verification is that if the selection module has accepted an incorrect decryption as correct, then the error is registered during verification. Unlike the classic application of a “Brute force” attack, which emphasizes computing power, here the focus is on signal processing.
