Which of the following performs authentication and provides a secure connection by using 3DES to encrypt all information between two systems?

The correct answer is B. SSH. DES encryption algorithm encrypts data three times. Three 64-bit keys are used, instead of one, for an overall key length of 192 bits (the first encryption is encrypted with second key, and the resulting cipher text is again encrypted with a third key).
