Show answerHide answer

Correct answer: (C) iii iv ii i

Explanation

(a) DES : DES is an implementation of a fiestel cipher. It uses 16 round fiestel structure. DES has an effective key length of 56 bits. (b) AES : The more popular and widely adopted symmetric encryption algorithm is AES. The features of AES is symmetric key symmetric block cipher and it has 128 bit key. (c) RSA : RSA algorithm works on two different keys i.e public key & private key. As the name public key given to everyone & private key is kept private. (d) SHA-1 : It is message digest.
