Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hashing and encryption both provide ways to keep sensitive data safe. However, in almost all circumstances, passwords should be hashed, NOT encrypted. Hashing is a one-way function (i.e., it is impossible to “decrypt” a hash and obtain the original plaintext value). Hashing is appropriate for password validation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which of the following is not a reason to revoke an SSL certificate? The validity period has ended.
Detailed explanation-3: -Rail fence ciphers are examples of transposition ciphers: The characters in the plaintext message are permuted to create the ciphertext.
