Keccak

Target entity: Keccak
Context triple: [Joan Daemen, designerOf, Keccak]

• A. 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).
• B. SHA-256
  SHA-256 is a widely used cryptographic hash function from the SHA-2 family that produces a 256-bit hash value for securing data integrity and authentication.
• C. 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.
• D. Merkle–Damgård construction
  The Merkle–Damgård construction is a fundamental method for building collision-resistant cryptographic hash functions from fixed-size compression functions, used in many classic hash algorithms like MD5 and SHA-1.
• E. RIPEMD-160
  RIPEMD-160 is a 160-bit cryptographic hash function designed as an alternative to SHA-1, commonly used for data integrity and security applications.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
