Question

Transcribed Image Text:2. Alice used a transposition cipher to encrypt her messages to Bob. For added security,
she encrypted the transposition cipher key using a substitution cipher, and kept the
encrypted cipher in her computer. Trudy managed to get hold of the encrypted
transposition cipher key. Can Trudy decipher Alice's messages to Bob? Why or why
not?

- Alice and Bob agree to use the prime p = 1373 and the base g = 2 for communications using the Elgamal public key cryptosystem. Bob chooses b = 716 as his private key, so his public key is B ≡ 2716 ≡ 469 (mod 1373). Alice encrypts the message m = 583 using the random element k = 877. What is the ciphertext (c1, c2) that Alice sends to Bob?arrow_forwardPerform the Encryption and then the Decryption for the Hill Cipher where the Plain text: "POH" and the key is: "GYBNQKURP".arrow_forwardBob's El Gamal prime number is p=907 and his secret key is a=16. Alice has encrypted x=13 for sending to Bob and her ciphertext is (37,♦). What is ♦ (mod p)? Select one: a. 512 b. 418 c. 253 d. 96 e. 419arrow_forward
- Should a nonce be encrypted? O Yes, it prevents the message from being hacked. No, otherwise Bob (the receiver) couldn't read the nonce. O No, and you should never use a nonce in the first place. O Yes, otherwise Oscar (the enemy) would be able to intercept it.arrow_forwardEncode the bold message using a one-time pad. Then reverse the process to decode the encrypted message. You may perform the calculations manually or automate by writing a computer program. Show the details of all steps in the process. MATH 221 covers the basics of Cryptography!arrow_forwardhow to do this; Given an RSA public and private key of (note that not all of the private key is given):N = 3065977e = 425d = 713237 Decrypt the following message that has been encrypted using the public key above: 1559791arrow_forward
