HP0-J66 · Question #12
A customer using high-speed parallel operations needs to encrypt data in 128-bit blocks with a key size of up to 256 bits. Which security standard should the customer use?
The correct answer is C. AES. The key size used for an AES cipher specifies the number of repetitions of transformation rounds that convert the input, called the plaintext, into the final output, called the ciphertext. The number of cycles of repetition are as follows: Not A: RC5 has a variable block size…

Explanation
The key size used for an AES cipher specifies the number of repetitions of transformation rounds that convert the input, called the plaintext, into the final output, called the ciphertext. The number of cycles of repetition are as follows: Not A: RC5 has a variable block size (32, 64 or 128 bits), key size. Not B: DES is now considered to be insecure for many applications. This is chiefly due to the 56- bit key size being too small.
