  Diametric.
- D.
  
  None of the above, they are all the same
Correct Answer
B. Asymmetric.

Explanation
Asymmetric cryptology system has a disadvantage of using more processing power and time compared to symmetric cryptology system. This is because in asymmetric cryptology, two different keys are used for encryption and decryption, which requires more computational resources and time compared to symmetric cryptology where a single key is used for both encryption and decryption.

In secure socket layer (SSL), before an encrypted transaction takes place, what does the Web server give to the browser?
- A.
  
  Its public key
- B.
  
  Its private key.
- C.
  
  Its public certificate
- D.
  
  Its private certificate
Correct Answer
A. Its public key

Explanation
In secure socket layer (SSL), before an encrypted transaction takes place, the web server gives its public key to the browser. The public key is used to encrypt the data sent from the browser, ensuring secure communication between the server and the client. The browser can then use the server's public key to encrypt the data before sending it, and the server can decrypt the data using its private key. This ensures that only the server can read the encrypted data, providing confidentiality and security to the transaction.

What are the two major types of encryption algorithms in use today that operate by encrypting or decrypting one chunk of data at a time?
- A.
  
  Stream algorithms and block ciphers
- B.
  
  Secure algorithms and block ciphers
- C.
  
  Block algorithms and stream ciphers
- D.
  
  Block algorithms and secure ciphers.
Correct Answer
C. Block algorithms and stream cipHers

Explanation
Block algorithms and stream ciphers are the two major types of encryption algorithms in use today that operate by encrypting or decrypting one chunk of data at a time. Block algorithms divide the data into fixed-size blocks and encrypt each block separately, while stream ciphers encrypt the data bit by bit or byte by byte. Both types of algorithms have their own advantages and are used in different encryption scenarios based on their specific characteristics and requirements.

How many bits for its key does data encryption standard (DES) use?
- A.
  
  64.
- B.
  
  128.
- C.
  
  192.
- D.
  
  256.
Correct Answer
A. 64.

Explanation
The Data Encryption Standard (DES) uses a key size of 64 bits. The key size refers to the number of bits used in the encryption algorithm to encrypt and decrypt data. In the case of DES, a 64-bit key is used to perform the encryption and decryption operations. This key size provides a balance between security and efficiency, as larger key sizes can offer stronger security but may also require more computational resources.

Triple data encryption standard (DES) is based on three compound operations of encryption/decryption and can incorporate the use of how many individual keys?
- A.
  
  1
- B.
  
  2
- C.
  
  3
- D.
  
  4
Correct Answer
C. 3

Explanation
Triple Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a cryptographic algorithm that applies encryption and decryption operations three times in a row. It uses three individual keys, each applied to one of the three operations. This ensures a higher level of security compared to single DES, as it requires an attacker to break through three layers of encryption. Therefore, the correct answer is 3.

Which encryption is not a telecommunications encryption type?
- A.
  
  Narrowband.
- B.
  
  Network.
- C.
  
  Bulk.
- D.
  
  Open.
Correct Answer
D. Open.

Explanation
The given question asks for an encryption type that is not related to telecommunications. Narrowband, network, and bulk are all encryption types commonly used in telecommunications. However, "open" does not refer to a specific encryption type and is not directly associated with telecommunications encryption. Therefore, "open" is the correct answer as it does not fit the category of telecommunications encryption.

Which encryption handles data that can come from equipment such as computers?
- A.
  
  Wideband.
- B.
  
  Narrowband.
- C.
  
  Network.
- D.
  
  Bulk.
Correct Answer
A. Wideband.

Explanation
Wideband encryption is the type of encryption that is capable of handling data from various sources, including equipment such as computers. It is designed to accommodate a wide range of data transmission rates and can handle large volumes of data. This makes it suitable for securing data from different types of equipment, including computers, which generate and transmit large amounts of data. Narrowband encryption, on the other hand, is designed for lower data transmission rates and may not be able to handle the high volume of data generated by computers. Network and Bulk encryption are not specifically related to handling data from equipment such as computers.

Which encryption handles multiplexed lines that come from combining multiple single data and voice lines into one?
- A.
  
  Bulk.
- B.
  
  Network.
- C.
  
  Wideband.
- D.
  
  Narrowband.
Correct Answer
A. Bulk.

Explanation
Bulk encryption is the correct answer because it refers to the encryption method used to handle multiplexed lines that combine multiple single data and voice lines into one. This type of encryption is specifically designed to handle large volumes of data and is commonly used in scenarios where multiple lines need to be combined and secured efficiently.

Which encryption handles software encryption?
- A.
  
  Narrowband.
- B.
  
  Wideband.
- C.
  
  Network.
- D.
  
  Bulk.
Correct Answer
C. Network.

Explanation
The correct answer is "Network" because network encryption refers to the process of encrypting data that is being transmitted over a network. It ensures that the data is secure and protected from unauthorized access or interception. Software encryption, on the other hand, refers to the encryption of data stored on a computer or device using software-based encryption algorithms. While software encryption can be used in conjunction with network encryption, the question specifically asks about the encryption that handles software encryption, which is network encryption.

Communications security (COMSEC) is defined as the measures and controls taken to deny unauthorized persons information and to ensure
- A.
  
  Authenticity.
- B.
  
  Compliance.
- C.
  
  Integrity.
- D.
  
  Validity.
Correct Answer
A. Authenticity.

Explanation
Communications security (COMSEC) refers to the measures and controls implemented to prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing information and to guarantee the authenticity of the communication. Authenticity ensures that the information being transmitted is genuine and has not been tampered with or altered in any way. It verifies that the message originated from the expected source and has not been modified during transmission. Therefore, authenticity is the most appropriate term to describe the objective of communications security.
