Target entity: RC6 block cipher Context triple: [Ronald L. Rivest, coInventorOf, RC6 block cipher]
-
A.
RC6
chosen
RC6 is a symmetric block cipher designed as a candidate for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), known for its simplicity, efficiency, and parameterized structure.
-
B.
RC5
RC5 is a symmetric-key block cipher designed by cryptographer Ronald L. Rivest, known for its simplicity, parameter flexibility, and use in various encryption applications.
-
C.
RC4 stream cipher
The RC4 stream cipher is a once-widely used symmetric key algorithm known for its simplicity and speed in software, but now considered insecure due to multiple discovered vulnerabilities.
-
D.
RC2
RC2 is a symmetric-key block cipher designed by cryptographer Ronald L. Rivest and widely used in early Internet security applications.
-
E.
Spritz cipher
Spritz cipher is a modern stream cipher and hash function designed by Ronald Rivest and Jacob Schuldt as a more secure and flexible successor to RC4.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
