1. Symmetric Encryption and Message Confidentiality:   a) Figure 2 shows the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC). There is an error in the transmitted Ciphertext no 1.     i) Is there any block further than P1 is affected?    ii) Suppose there is a bit error in the source version of P1. Through how many ciphertext blocks is this error propagated? What is the effect on the receiver?    iii) Identify which decrypted plaintext blocks Px will be corrupted if there is an error in block C4 of the transmitted ciphertext.
