PGP encrypts data using a block cipher called:

Correct Answer: A

Question 12 Explanation: 
→ International data encryption algorithm(IDEA) was used in Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) v2.0 and was incorporated after the original cipher used in v1.0, BassOmatic, was found to be insecure.
→ IDEA is an optional algorithm in the OpenPGP standard. PGP encrypts data by using a block cipher called international data encryption algorithm.
→ IDEA operates on 64-bit blocks using a 128-bit key and consists of a series of 8 identical transformations (a round, see the illustration) and an output transformation (the half-round).
→ The processes for encryption and decryption are similar.
