They're a world-class security organization. If a nation-state actor can get access to their most important keys the hard way, then a nation-state actor has a decent shot at compromising any private key on the planet, if they're willing to put enough money into it.

They're a large, trusted enterprise software company specializing in security. I'm very comfortable using them as a heuristic for the most secure that a regularly-used private key can possibly be.
