AES256 qualifies for U.S. government classification as TOP Secret.
ECC is the only one used for Commercial Smart Phone encryption. Faster with less overhead.
Answer is A.
Answer is D. AES-256 because of association with military. Just confirming the question and answer.
Dude. It doesn’t matter if NSA invented AES or not. Mobile devices need fast and untracable encryption method which is ECC
According to Darril Gibson, ECC is a strong security, and has been approved by the NSA in 2005 for digital signatures and Diffie-Hellman key agreements. I think the answer is A based on that information. Hard to say really though.
Oh and I forgot to add, ECC is commonly used with small wireless devices which in this case would be the smart phones.
ok.. so is the answer AES 256 or ECC?
I answered ECC as well.. all the study materials I’ve use ECC for smart phones.
