Detailed explanation-1: -Classic cryptography deals with traditional characters, i.e., letters & digits directly. It is based on the concept of ‘security through obscurity’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which of the following is FALSE about “security through obscurity"? It can only provide limited security. What is low latency?
Detailed explanation-3: -Data masking, also known as data obfuscation, hides the actual data using modified content like characters or numbers. The main objective of data masking is creating an alternate version of data that cannot be easily identifiable or reverse engineered, protecting data classified as sensitive.
Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the answers listed below refers to a solution designed to strengthen the security of session keys? In cryptography, the term “Key stretching” refers to a mechanism for extending the length of a cryptographic key to make it more secure against brute-force attacks.
