What is the key size of the International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA)?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

JAVA was developed so that the same program could be executed on multiple hardware and operating system platforms, it is not Architecture Specific.

The following answers are incorrect:

Object-oriented. Is not correct because JAVA is object-oriented. It should use the object-oriented programming methodology.

Distributed. Is incorrect because JAVA was developed to be able to be distrubuted, run on multiple computer systems over a network.

Multithreaded. Is incorrect because JAVA is multi-threaded that is calls to subroutines as is the case with object-oriented programming.

A virus is a program that can replicate itself on a system but not necessarily spread itself by network connections.

Ah, IDEA, the algorithm so secure it could probably encrypt a message even if you wrote it on a bar of soap and dropped it in the ocean.

128 bits sounds right to me. I can't imagine they'd use anything smaller than that for a secure algorithm like IDEA.

Hmm, I remember learning about IDEA in my cryptography class. I think the key size is 128 bits, but I better double-check that.

I agree with Alesia, 128 bits is commonly used in encryption algorithms for strong security.

I'm pretty sure it's 128 bits, that's the industry standard these days.

I think it's B) 128 bits because it provides a good balance between security and performance.
