Options:

A.  

A minimum of 15 rounds is needed for a Feistel cipher to be secure

B.  

Only the key needs to be secret, not the actual algorithm

C.  

Both algorithm and key should be kept secret

D.  

A minimum key size of 256 bits is necessary for security

Question # 16

With Cipher feedback (CFB) what happens?

Options:

A.  

The key is reapplied

B.  

The ciphertext block is encrypted then the ciphertext produced is XOR’d back with the plaintext to produce the current ciphertext block

C.  

The block cipher is turned into a stream cipher

D.  

The message is divided into blocks and each block is encrypted separately. This is the most basic mode for symmetric encryption

B.  

Electronic codebook (ECB)

C.  

Output feedback (OFB)

D.  

Cipher feedback (CFB)
