,If you wished to see a list of revoked certificates from a CA, where would you look?

A CRL
B CA
C RFC
D RA

A

Which of the following is generally true about block ciphers?

A Secret block ciphers should be trusted.
B Block ciphers permute the bits of the input plaintext.
C The plaintext and ciphertext are always the same size.
D A block cipher is an encryption function for variable-size blocks of data.

C

What does the OCSP protocol provide?

A encryption
B VPN connectivity
C hashing
D a real time protocol for verifying certificates

D

U.S. encryption standard that replaced DES. Block symmetric cipher that uses 128-bit block sizes and
various key lengths (128, 192, 256).

AES

DES, 3DES, SHA, AES (some AES implementations are Type I)

Class 3 Algorithms

Encryption method where the sender and receiver use an instance of the same key for encryption and
decryption purposes.

Symmetric

Block symmetric algorithm chosen by NIST as an encryption standard in 1976. It uses a 56-bit true key
bit size, 64-bit block size, and 16 rounds of computation.

Data Encryption Standard (DES)

technical specification indicating how multimedia data and e-mail binary attachments are to be
transferred.

Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME)

,Valid data transmission is maliciously or fraudulently repeated to allow an entity gain unauthorized
access.

Replay Attack

protocol suite that provides a method of setting up a secure channel for protected data exchange
between two devices.

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec)

Juniper (block cipher)
MAYFLY (asymmetric)
FASTHASH (hashing)
WALBURN (high bandwith link encryption)
PEGASUS (satellite telemetry)

Class 1 Algorithms

Component of a PKI that creates and maintains digital certificates throughout their life cycles.

Certificate Authority

Uses public key encryption and provides data encryption, server authentication, message integrity, and
optional client authentication.
It is currently at version 3.0.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)

Manipulating individuals so that they will divulge confidential information, rather than by breaking in or
using technical cracking techniques.

Social engineering attack

Cryptanalysis attack where the attacker is assumed to have access only to a set of ciphertexts.

Ciphertext-only attack

servers and software signing, for which independent verification and checking of identity and authority
is done by issuing CA

Class 3 Certificates

it should be impossible for any attacker to calculate, or otherwise guess, from any given subsequence,
any previous or future values in the sequence

BSI Criteria K3 states

Cryptanalysis attack that uses identified statistical patterns.

Statistical attack

organizations for which proof of identity is required

Class 2 Certificates

, Block symmetric cipher that uses a 128-bit key and 64-bit block size.

International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA)

individuals, and intended for email

Class 1 Certificates

A form of cryptanalysis applicable to symmetric key algorithms that was invented by Eli Biham and Adi
Shamir.

The examination of differences in an input and how that affects the resultant difference in the output.

Differential cryptanalysis

Cryptanalysis attack where the attacker is assumed to have access to sets of corresponding plaintext and
ciphertext.

Known plaintext attack

Carries out real-time validation of a certificate and reports back to the user whether the certificate is
valid, invalid, or unknown.
______________ checks the CRL that is maintained by the CA.

Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP)

What is the formula Me%n related to?

Encrypting with RSA

Plain-text is equal to the encryption function (E) with the key (k) and the ciphertext (c) being passed as
parameters to that function

P= E(k,c) Symmetric decryption

Not certified for government use

Class 4 algorithms

64 bit algorithm operating at 56 bits with an 8 bit parity block

DES

___ is the authenticating protocol, and _____ is an authenticating and encrypting protocol that uses
cryptographic mechanisms to provide source authentication, confidentiality, and message integrity.

Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP).

developed as a Russian national standard and produced fixed length outputs of 256 bits

GOST

A measure of the uncertainty associated with a random variable

Entropy
