How many keys are required for n people to communicate with each other securely?When it comes to key management, what are the drawbacks of symmetric encryption?Is it possible to encrypt both the data and the connection from beginning to end? What are the advantages of doing this? Please provide an example of a situation in which the use of encryption might be advantageous.
- Are there any benefits and drawbacks associated with the use of symmetric encryption methods? What considerations are necessary before settling on a certain mode of encryption to put into use?What are the drawbacks of using a key management system for symmetric encryption?Where does symmetric encryption fall short in terms of key management?

Explain the computer security objectives? or what are the three objectives of Computer Security? 2. What is the difference between passive and active security threats? Give an example of each one? 3. what is security mechanism? 4. Why HASH is not sufficient for a message authentication? What is the main difference between HASH function and HIMAC? 5.

List the parameters of a symmetric block cipher for greater security? 8. What are the two approaches to attacking a secure hash function? 9. What is message authentication code? 10. What is symmetric encryption? What are the two reequipments for secure use of symmetric encryption?Part 1: Please answer the following questions about the fundamental of cryptography. Each question has only one correct answer. 1, Which description about block ciphers is NOT correct? Block ciphers encrypt the message block by block. A block cipher with a small block is vulnerable to the codebook attack. The encryption and decryption algorithms in block ciphers use the same secret key. The key length for block cipher should be very short to defend against the exhaustive key search attacks. 2, If the key length of a block cipher is 64 bits, what is the size of the key space? Hint: The key space consists of all possible keys. 64 264 232 2128 3, Modern block ciphers combine substitution S and permutation P operations to improve security. Based on the security rule, the cipher should not use consecutive substitutions or consecutive permutations. In the following combinations, which one violates the above security rule? ?1?1?2?2 B. ?1?1?2?2 C. ?1?1?2?2 4, Which…
