3 In symmetric encryption the sender and receiver must

share the key only, but not the algorithm


4 for cryptographic applications, can use a block cipher to
generate random numbers
5 Asymmetric key schemes is slow compared to symmetric
key schemes
6 In CFB ,electronic codebook main use is sending a few
blocks of data
7 The last block in the CBC mode uses an
Initialization Vector
8 In CTR : the blocks can be processed (encrypted or
decrypted) in parallel
9 Public-Key algorithms rely on one key where it can be
used in both encryption and decryption
10 In CTR: If the same message is encrypted (with the same
key) and sent twice, their ciphertexts are the same
11 the CBC mode, the plaintext block is XORed with
previous ciphertext block before encryption
12 In EBC mode repetitions in plaintext do not show
up in ciphertext
13 The counter value in CTR modes repeats
key/counter values
