What is the preferred way of encryption?

A. Pre shared secret key
B. Using key distribution center (kdc)
C. Public key-encryption
D. Symmetric key

Explanation: Pre Shared key can be compromised and either party can be suspected. Likewise KDC or symmetric key can have breach which are undesirable. Public and private key encryption is a known industry standard.

What is not a role of encryption?

A. It is used to protect data from unauthorized access during transmission
B. It is used to ensure user authentication
C. It is used to ensure data integrity
D. It is used to ensure data corruption doesn’t happens

Explanation: Encryption doesn’t have error correction or detection facility thus cannot be used to safeguard from data corruption.

What is cipher-block chaining?

A. Data is logically €?anded’ with previous block
B. Data is logically €?ored’ with previous block

A. Aes
B. Tes
C. Triple des
D. Des

Which of the following is not a stream cipher?

A. Two fish
