-
A.
RC4 stream cipher
chosen
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.
-
B.
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.
-
C.
ChaCha20
ChaCha20 is a modern stream cipher designed by Daniel J. Bernstein, widely used for its high performance and strong security in protocols like TLS.
-
D.
Advanced Encryption Standard
Advanced Encryption Standard is a widely used symmetric block cipher standard that secures digital data in applications ranging from wireless networks to government communications.
-
E.
Spritz cipher
Spritz cipher is a modern stream cipher and hash function designed by Ronald Rivest and Jacob Schuldt as a more secure and flexible successor to RC4.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
