1What is the focus of cryptanalysis?
- Ahiding secret codes
- Bdeveloping secret codes
- Cbreaking encrypted codes
- Dimplementing encrypted codes
2How many bits does the Data Encryption Standard (DES) use for data encryption?
- A40 bits
- B56 bits
- C64 bits
- D72 bits
3Which statement describes the Software-Optimized Encryption Algorithm (SEAL)?
- ASEAL is a stream cipher.
- BIt uses a 112-bit encryption key.
- CIt is an example of an asymmetric algorithm.
- DIt requires more CPU resources than software-based AES does.
4Which encryption algorithm is an asymmetric algorithm?
- ADH
- BSEAL
- C3DES
- DAES
5An online retailer needs a service to support the nonrepudiation of the transaction. Which component is used for this service?
- Athe private key of the retailer
- Bthe unique shared secret known only by the retailer and the customer
- Cthe public key of the retailer
- Dthe digital signatures
6In which situation is an asymmetric key algorithm used?
- ATwo Cisco routers authenticate each other with CHAP.
- BUser data is transmitted across the network after a VPN is established.
- CAn office manager encrypts confidential files before saving them to a removable device.
- DA network administrator connects to a Cisco router with SSH.
7What is the purpose of a nonrepudiation service in secure communications?
- Ato ensure that encrypted secure communications cannot be decoded
- Bto confirm the identity of the recipient of the communications
- Cto provide the highest encryption level possible
- Dto ensure that the source of the communications is confirmed
8Which objective of secure communications is achieved by encrypting data?
- Aintegrity
- Bauthentication
- Cconfidentiality
- Davailability
9Why is the 3DES algorithm often preferred over the AES algorithm?
- A3DES is more trusted because it has been proven secure for a longer period than AES.
- BAES is more expensive to implement than 3DES.
- C3DES performs better in high-throughput, low-latency environments than AES.
- DMajor networking equipment vendors such as Cisco have not yet adopted AES.
10What is the most common use of the Diffie-Helman algorithm in communications security?
- Ato create password hashes for secure authentication
- Bto provide routing protocol authentication between routers
- Cto encrypt data for secure e-commerce communications
- Dto secure the exchange of keys used to encrypt data
11Which type of encryption algorithm uses public and private keys to provide authentication, integrity, and confidentiality?
- Asymmetric
- Bshared secret
- CIPsec
- Dasymmetric
