Target entity: DIGEST-MD5
Context triple: [CRAM-MD5, relatedTo, DIGEST-MD5]

• A. MD5
  MD5 is a widely known but now cryptographically broken 128-bit hash function formerly used for checksums, data integrity, and security applications.
• B. CRAM-MD5
  CRAM-MD5 is a challenge–response authentication mechanism that uses MD5 hashing to securely verify a user's identity without transmitting their password in plaintext.
• C. Hash
  "Hash" is a darkly comic novel by Swedish author Torgny Lindgren that explores memory, identity, and rural life through the story of two men obsessively disputing who makes the better potato hash.
• D. SHA-1
  SHA-1 is a now-legacy 160-bit cryptographic hash function once widely used for data integrity and digital signatures but today considered insecure due to practical collision attacks.
• E. HMAC
  HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) is a cryptographic construction that combines a secret key with a hash function to provide data integrity and authentication.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
