Exam 350-701 topic 1 question 338 discussion

It is A and D. This question is talking about symmetric key exchange. Symmetrical key exchange uses less memory ( compared to asymmetrical, that uses integer factorization) and does not use integer factorization

The question is about differences between asymmetric and symmetric keys. secret key cryptography = symmetric cryptography A. utilization of less memory = symmetric keys B. utilization of large prime number iterations = public/private keys C. utilization of different keys for encryption and decryption = public/private keys D. key selection without integer factorization = public/private keys use integer factorization E. provides the capability to only know the key on one side = very sad formulation, but for symmetric keys, both sides need to know the key, whilst private key is only on one side

Answer a,e

I vote for A, D.

D & E is correct: Functions of secret key cryptography (symmetric cryptography): Key selection without integer factorization (D): Secret key cryptography relies on selecting a secret key without the need for complex mathematical operations like integer factorization, which is used in public key cryptography. Provides the capability to only know the key on one side (E): In symmetric cryptography, both parties involved in communication need to possess the same secret key, which they keep private from others. This means that only the communicating parties should know the secret key.

Agree with the others around A and D being correct. B, C and E relate to public/private

A and D are the correct answers.

"provides the capability to only know the key on one side" The proof that Cisco employs monkeys to formulate these questions

C E only good answers

I prefer A,D

A and D are correct.
