Read the following statements and answer the question. Assertion: Encryption essentially scrambles the information so as to make its interpretation extremely difficult. |
Both Assertion (A) and reasoning (R) are correct and R is the correct explanation of A. Both Assertion (A) and reasoning (R) are correct and but R is not the correct explanation of A. Assertion (A) is true but Reasoning (R) is not correct. Assertion (A) is not true but Reasoning (R) is correct. |
Assertion (A) is true but Reasoning (R) is not correct. |
The correct answer is option 3- Assertion (A) is true but Reasoning (R) is not correct. Assertion: Encryption essentially scrambles the information so as to make its interpretation extremely difficult. THIS IS TRUE. Reason: Encryption cannot ensures security of data if it lands in the hands of a forensic expert. THIS IS NOT TRUE. Software provides additional security through data encryption. Encryption essentially scrambles the information so as to make its interpretation extremely difficult (almost impossible). Thus, Encryption ensures security of data even if it lands in wrong hands, because the receiver of data will not be able to decode and interpret it. |
