How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T2383389 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: SSH Compression Algorithm Names Context triple: [RFC 4250, definesRegistry, SSH Compression Algorithm Names]
-
A.
SSH Encryption Algorithm Names
SSH Encryption Algorithm Names are standardized identifiers used within the SSH protocol to specify which cryptographic ciphers are employed to secure data in transit.
-
B.
Rijndael
Rijndael is a symmetric block cipher designed by Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen that was selected by NIST as the basis for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
-
C.
SHA-2 Data Integrity Verification for the Secure Shell (SSH) Transport Layer Protocol
"SHA-2 Data Integrity Verification for the Secure Shell (SSH) Transport Layer Protocol" is an IETF specification that updates SSH to use SHA-2-based message authentication codes to improve data integrity and security over the transport layer.
-
D.
RC4 stream cipher
The RC4 stream cipher is a once-widely used symmetric key algorithm known for its simplicity and speed in software, but now considered insecure due to multiple discovered vulnerabilities.
-
E.
Salsa20
Salsa20 is a high-speed stream cipher designed by Daniel J. Bernstein, widely used in modern cryptography for its strong security and efficient software performance.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
Instruction
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
Input
Subject: SSH Compression Algorithm Names Description of subject: SSH Compression Algorithm Names is the IANA-maintained registry that lists and standardizes the identifiers for compression methods used within the SSH protocol.
