IPSec ______ mode involves "end-to-end" encryption; i.e. data remains
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
encrypted from the time it leaves a sender's device to the time it arrives at the
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
receiver's device. \|
A. Tunnel
\|
B. Transport
\|
C. Trusted - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Transport
\| \| \| \| \|
IPSec ______ mode involves encryption from gateway to gateway, i.e. just
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
through the public network space. \| \| \| \|
A. Tunnel
\|
B. Transport
\|
C. Trusted - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Tunnel
\| \| \| \| \|
A security analyst on a local network using monitoring tools is likely to only
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
be able to read contents of traffic encrypted using IPSec ______ mode.
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
A. Tunnel
\|
B. Transport
\|
C. Trusted - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Tunnel
\| \| \| \| \| \|
Remember, with tunnel mode, encryption does not happen until just before it
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
leaves the local network. Traffic likely remains unencrypted between the end
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
user device and the local network boundary.

,_____ is a lightweight cryptography method for signing messages (MAC). It
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
boasts a relatively undemanding hardware implementation (only ~3,333 gates
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|
required at 1MHz clock rate) making it suitable for IoT implementation. -
