Because of a pandemic, a company decides to let employees work from home. What security technology should be implemented to ensure that data communications between the employees and the company’s network remain confidential?
- MD5
- AES
- SHA-3
- SHA-1
| Explanation & Hint:
MD5 and SHA are hash-generating algorithms that guarantee that no one intercepted the message and altered it thus ensuring the integrity of the data. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a symmetric encryption algorithm where each communicating party needs to know the pre-shared key thus ensuring that the data communication is confidential. |
