Need below answer: 1. Suppose a merchant does not want to store PAN data, even in encrypted form. How can the merchant do so but still accept returns by verifying that the same card is presented? 2. Using SSL to encrypt PANs when they are transmitted from the customer’s browser sufficiently ensures the PANs are encrypted when stored by the merchant’s server. True false
What is the Polygon address used by the hacker to steal $600 million from the Poly Network in 2021? What is the number of the block that includes that transaction? What is the initial function that the hacker called in their exploit?
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 description about the DES cipher is NOT correct? The block size of DES is 64 bits. The DES cipher is based on the Feistel Cipher Structure. When the plaintext is encrypted using DES twice (Double DES) with two different keys, the key search space increases from 256 to 2112. Triple DES is more secure compared with original DES.

Show the working of "Data Encryption Standard" using the figure. Suppose your want to encrypt "M=??3456789ABCDEF" (?? stands for last two numeric digits of your roll number taken in hex notation) with your secret key "K=1234352ABC54327E" (HEX NOTATION), then find the output after first round of "Data Encryption Standard". ROLL NO=18
In Bitcoin mining, which of the following can a malicious node do, even though it may not be in its best interest? A. Create valid transactions originating from someone else's address B. Prevent a valid transaction from getting any confirmations forever C. Ignore the longest valid branch rule when proposing a new block D. Delete a transaction in the last block of the longest chain
Answer the following: a) Compare and contrast dictionary attacks to brute force attacks. Recommend your choice with rationale if you must crack an encrypted password. b) Discuss how you can secure the hashed password database on an authentication server.
server allows upper and lowercase letters and numbers for passwords, size limit 10. if size of a salt used in server is 16 bits, how many attempts in worse case needed for brute force attack to crack password?
must answered ALL parts for upvote, as per chegg guidelines, up to four subparts may be answered: - what are two desirable properties of IV in network security? - a cryptographic hash function is used to provide confidentiality and integrity of a message, true or false? - when AES is used with the CBC mode, the size of an IV is 256 bit long, true or false?
Which of these can be used to improve defenses against host attacks on a password system in which the passwords are stored in plain text (note: the system must remain a user-knowledge-based authentication system)? Select one: a. Hash the passwords and store the hashes, rather than the plaintext passwords b. Store the password on a physical object instead c. Use one-time passcodes instead d. Limit the number of attempts allowed
Find the holes in the following authentication methods and provide a fix to the identified issue:A password is first hashed by Bob, who then uses that hash to compare against a database of other hashed passwords.Bob uses a hashing technique to run a password twice, and then compares the results to a database of hashed passwords.
Which manner of operation is vulnerable to the following security flaw: block independence allows an attacker to successfully alter some ciphertext blocks without knowing the key used?
