Description
Write a 3-4 page paper in APA format (not including the cover page and reference page) responding to the prompts below. Please use the APA Sample provided in the Student Resources to complete your assignment. Remember to cite to your sources.
1. Compare the Diffie-Hellman algorithm to other public-key algorithms and explain how they are different.
2. Based on what you have learned in Chapter 22, is it possible in SSL for the receiver to reorder SSL record blocks that arrive out of order? If so, explain how it can be done. If not, why not?
3. Using your web browser, visit any secure website (i.e., one whose URL starts with “https”).
Examine the details of the X.509 certificate used by that site. This is usually accessible by selecting the padlock symbol.
a. Identify the key elements in this certificate, including the owner’s name and public key, its validity dates, the name of the CA that signed it, and the type and value of signature.
b. State whether this is a CA or end-user certificate, and why.
c. Indicate whether the certificate is valid or not, and why.
d. State whether there are any other obvious problems with the algorithms used in this certificate.
4. Explain the differences between TKIP and CCMP.
