Testing for 2 seconds already found the prime factors 271 and 13597. It will probably not be hard.

Edit: To add some more information, p / (271 * 13597) is still not prime, however, the library I was using didn't find any new factors in 30 minutes.

There are no other factors less than 2^32. You can see my other comment for details on verifying this.
