Explanation of Solution
Impact of Relationship between Iris and Kevin:
Let’s assume that Kevin and Iris are in a romantic relationship, unknown to anyone else in the company. Relationship among coworkers is not against company policies.
- Iris need not inform Charlie about her relationship with Charlie if see doesn’t wish to apply for transfer simply, because of the fact that having a relationship with coworker is not against company policies as long as they are not married and are not being in a direct reporting relationship with each other.
- It should not be a problem if they separate their work life apart from their love life.
- However, if Iris applies for the job but has no current plans for marriage, there is no need to inform Charlie about her relationship to Kevin...

Cryptography:
Alice and Bob are going to establish a secure session key utilizing Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The agreed upon public prime is, 10477, Alice’s secret is 997, Bob’s secret is 1137. The public base is 31. What is their session key?
Bob created a risky business venture plan and decided to regularly send electronic versions of it to Alice (who is out of town on business) for review, but he knows that his notorious (evil?) business competitor Malice maintains an office near enough to attempt to monitor his communications in the computer network
(a) Bob first needs to establish a new key with Alice for communication (even though Malice is monitoring), without meeting physically with her. Explain how he could use cryptography to achieve this
(b) With your help, Bob solved the previous problem. Next, Bob is concerned about sending so many copies of the plan, providing so much ciphertext for attackers to study to attack his key with, so he’d like to create a separate key and share it with Alice for message encryption. Propose a cryptographic technique to protect his new, 2nd key and explain how to use it here
(c) Bob also wants to ensure that Alice knows each message containing the plan is from him (not someone else),…

- A well known cricket team has a schedule tour of XYZ country in some days. They want to make sure to provide good security to the national team. Different security members have visited this country to check security arrangements. Some are agreed while some has little concerns. There are 4 different members who have visited in different period of time. The tour can go as schedule if there are at-least 3 members have submitted the positive report about security arrangements but if two members submit positive report while two other members submit negative report then there will be a deadlock between decision so there can be a don’t care condition. Now you have to design a Combination Circuit which can satisfy this scenario.

- Q: Alice wants to set up a business company that securely deals with her clients. Bob is a potential client that Alice wants to have a good connection. As a security consultant, your job is to devise a plan to establish a secure information exchange. The assumption is made that Alice and Bob already have their public and public keys; (PrivA, PubA) and (PrivB, PubB) respectively, and both of them have exchanged their public key beforehand. Your plan includes comprehensive protocols to secure all messages, according to Alice’s requirements below. Discuss your answers based on Asymmetric Encryption. i) Integrity: Alice and Bob want to make sure that every message sent cannot be forged by anyone. ii) Authenticity: Alice and Bob can verify that messages actually came from them. iii) Confidentiality: Alice exchanges business-related documents with Bob in a way, so that Alice and Bob may open, read or modify the documents.arrow_forwardQ: Alice wants to set up a business company that securely deals with her clients.
