Program Plan Intro
Digital Signature:
Public-key primitives of message authentication are called digital signatures.
PGP:
PGP stands for Pretty Good Privacy and is an encryption program that provides privacy and authentication for data communication.
Given Information:
Bob receives a PGP message from Alice.

Students have asked these similar questions
Suppose Bob receives a PGP message from Alice. If Bob receives a message, how does he know it was delivered by Alice and not, say, Trudy? Does PGP use a message authentication code (MAC)?
Let's pretend Bob gets a PGP communication from Alice. How does Bob know for sure that Alice (rather
than, say, Trudy) sent the message? Is a MAC used by PGP to ensure message integrity?
Write the code to implement a program that will sniff network packets and will try to detect certain types of network attacks. Implement 3 rules to prevent: DOS attacks, TCP session hijacking attacks, and TCP connection resets (hint: what would you look for in the packets to detect these 3 attacks?).

- As presented in the text, SMTP involves the exchange of several small messages. In most cases, the server responses do not affect what the client sends subsequently. The client might thus implement command pipelining: sending multiple commands in a single message. (a) For what SMTP commands does the client need to pay attention to the server's responses? (b) Assume the server reads each client message with gets() or the equivalent, which reads in a string up to a . What would it have to do even to detect that a client had used command pipelining?

In IEEE 802.11, open system authentication simply consists of two communications.An authentication is requested by the client, which contains the station ID (typicallythe MAC address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/routercontaining a success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur isif the client’s MAC address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration.1. What are the benefits of this authentication scheme? 2.
