Description Using Encryption to Enhance Confidentiality and Integrity By now you should have finished sections 1 and 2 of the unit lab and saved your screenshots to a Word document. Overview Confidentiality, integrity, and availability comprise the famous CIA triad of information security. Encryption is an increasingly important way to assure data confidentiality and integrity. In this week’s assignment and lab you apply encryption technology to achieve both using encryption keys. Directions Consider your lab work and other studies to address each of the following in the Word document that contains your lab screenshots. Clearly label each section. 1. Describe briefly what you learned or observed in the lab and include it in the section with your screenshots. Be specific. 2. Determine whether it is possible to encrypt the secret-message.txt file found in the lab by using only the TargetWindows02 (receiver’s) public key. Explain the ramifications of doing this as opposed to another method. 3. Create your own personal key pair using the appropriate application found in the preparation area. Use it to encrypt your Unit 8 assignment Word document, and submit it. Submission Instructions Submit: Parts one and two in a Word document with well-labeled responses.
