Explanation of Solution
Right of individuals to make alterations:
“No”, the individual person has no right to decrypt the internal structure of a product.
Reason:
A company when develops a new product or system then the company patents it. Patent is the right permitted by the government to the inventor to protect his original work of creation from duplication for a limited time. Any other person cannot use, modify, develop, or sell the creation without the permission of the original creator.
When a company develops a product whose internal structure is encrypted and patents it then it is illegal to make any alteration or modification and distribution of the product even if the person buys the product.
An individual has no right to make any modifications in the product which is developed by other person or company.
Right of individuals to use a company’s product information for commercial manner:
“No”, an individual has no right to use company’s product information in a commercial manner.
Reason:
When a company develops a product and patents it then it is illegal to use and distribute the product without the consent of the owner. An individual in any case, has no right to use the company’s product for commercial purpose.
A person has no right to use the product of a company for commercial purpose, only the company has the right to take decision...

- suppose the RSA cryptosystem is used for sending secret messages with the private key (15,3) and the cipher text "3" is received. what is the plaintext?arrow_forwardThe early phases of the development of public key cryptography were marked by the challenge of finding a solution to the problem of key distribution.Is it feasible to quickly demonstrate how key distribution might be carried out by mentioning an actual case as an illustration?arrow_forward1. Perform encryption and decryption using the RSA algorithm for p=3, q=5, e-7, d=3, M=13, where p, q are two prime numbers used to generate modulus n, e is the public key component, d is the private key component and M is the message.arrow_forward
- In a system an RSA algorithm with p=5 and q=11, is implemented for data security. What is the value of the decryption key if the value of the encryption key is 27?arrow_forwardSuppose you were given a number of different ciphertexts and you are told that they are each encryptions of plaintexts using a Caesar cipher-type encryption but with different keys and different plaintext languages from around the world. You are asked to try to work out the most likely language of each ciphertext. Explain how you would approach this problem.arrow_forwardIs it feasible, with the right software installed on a desktop computer, to produce secret keys for use in cryptographic protocols in a safe and reliable way?arrow_forward
- Question 1 Study the scenario and complete the question(s) that follow: Ceasar Cipher The Caesar Cipher technique is one of the earliest and simplest method of encryption technique. It's simply a type of substitution cipher, i.e., each letter of a given text is replaced by a letter some fixed number of positions down the alphabet. For example with a shift of 1, A would be replaced by B, B would become C, and so on. The method is apparently named after Julius Caesar, who apparently used it to communicate with his officials. 1.1 Write a Ceasar cipher algorithm in such a way that a character D is changed to N. Derive the encryption of the other characters accordingly. 1.2 Based on your algorithm, what will be the encrypted code of the message “my mother is not home". End of Question 1arrow_forwardNote that the RSA functions can be used both as a public-key cryptosystem and as a public-key signature scheme. The decryption function and secret key of the cryptosystem are used to generate signatures, and the encryption function and public key of the cryptosystem are used to verify signatures. Is this true in general? That is, can any public-key cryptosystem be turned into a public-key signature scheme simply by reversing the roles of encryption and decryption?arrow_forwardSuppose we are using a method of encryption that does as much as possible to hide any patterns of a file, including symbol frequencies. And suppose we also want to compress the same file. In terms of the compression performance (the size of compressed file), is it better to compress the file before encrypting it, or encrypt the file before compressing it? Briefly explain the reasonarrow_forward
- What are the two approaches to attacking a cipher?arrow_forwardUse the two prime numbers p = 5 and q =13 in the first step to give ONE integrated example to show how the five steps in the basic process of RSA Cryptography works. Based on your example, demonstrate how the number 60 as an original message is encrypted into ciphertext and decrypted back correctly to the original message. If you need to choose a number in any step, you must choose it from the set {x e R: 8 s x< 12}. You must show all detailed steps involved.arrow_forwardA government agency comes to the conclusion that it must use encryption in order to safeguard the communication that takes place between itself and its overseas counterparts. It is determined to design a proprietary cryptographic algorithm for this reason during a meeting with its counterparts, and this will be done in order to: Is there a justification for this choice. What risks are being taken?arrow_forward
