◍ critical path method (CPM).
Answer: step-by-step process planning technique that defines the critical and
noncritical tasks within a project in order to reduce or minimize process
delays and time-related problems.
◍ SPECK.
Answer: _____ is a light-weight symmetric block cipher with variable block
sizes, key sizes, and rounds, that is optimized forsoftware
implementations.A. SIMONB. SPECKC. PRESENT
◍ preparation phase.
Answer: The risk management phase that consists of all of the activities that
we can perform in advance of the incident itself, in order to better enable us
to handle it
◍ Vertical Application.
Answer: Software that designed for a specific business.
◍ Uses four 5 × 5 matrices arranged in a square, are where each matrix
contains 25 letters for encoding and decoding operations..
Answer: FOUR SQUAR CIPHER
◍ is a publicly available ledger of transactions that allows the Bitcoin network
to know the number of bitcoins that a given user has in their account. Can be
public or private..
Answer: Blockchain
◍ Information.
, Answer: Processed data.
◍ Primary Key.
Answer: A field that uniquely identifies a record, such as customer ID or
student ID.
◍ 16 rounds.
Answer: Number of rounds used in Blowfish encryption
◍ Which cipher makes use of a grid which maps letters into numeric values as
part of the encryption process?.
Answer: BIFID
◍ server-side attack.
Answer: A type of attack on the web server that can target vulnerabilities
such as lack of input validation, improper or inadequate permissions, or
extraneous files left on the server from the development process
◍ data in motion.
Answer: This type of data is best protected by protecting the data itself
(using SSL, TLS) and protecting the connection (using IPsec VPN, SSL
VPN)
◍ Modular Design.
Answer: a design approach that subdivides a system into smaller parts called
modules or skids, that can be independently created and then used in
different systems.
◍ SSH (Secure Shell).
Answer: protocol used to secure traffic in a variety of ways, including file
transfers and terminal access. uses RSA encryption (asymmetric encryption)
◍ Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
Answer: Involves utilizing computer technology to link various aspects of a
business; a very complex resource planning system that spans the entire
business; companies often have difficulty implementing the system.
◍ Mono-alphabetic substitution cipher known as "shift" cipher. Involves
, plaintext being replaced by a letter some fixed number of positions down the
alphabet. i.e., a Caesar Cipher using a shift of +3 would mean a plaintext
letter A would result in a ciphertext letter D (a shift of three positions to the
right in the alphabet)..
Answer: CAESAR
◍ CRL (Certificate Revocation List).
Answer: a public list that holds all the revoked certifications for a certain
period of time
◍ When setting up the table for use with the Playfair cipher, you should ensure
no letters are repeated and also be sure to omit which letter from the
matrix?.
Answer: J
◍ Transnational.
Answer: a commercial enterprise that operates substantial facilities, does
business in more than one country and does not consider any particular
country its national home.
◍ KEY SIZE FOR RC4.
Answer: 40-2048
◍ Foreign Key.
Answer: Field that is a primary key to another table.
◍ data mart.
Answer: smaller subset database from a data warehouse typically focused on
a single area or function.
◍ Entropy.
Answer: ______ measures the amount of unpredictability, and in encryption
it relates to the degree of uncertainty of the encryption process.A. PaddingB.
EncodingC. Entropy
◍ Trojan Horse.
Answer: Type of virus that completely replaces an existing application and
