Questions and Answers

What is a key benefit of using tunnel mode over transport mode?

  • Tunnel mode is more efficient
  • Tunnel mode provides confidentiality
  • Tunnel mode hides information about communicating parties (correct)
  • Tunnel mode is used for AH authentication
  • What type of protection does AH provide on the header?

  • Authentication only
  • Encryption only
  • Integrity protection only (correct)
  • Confidentiality and integrity
  • What is a key difference between ESP and AH?

  • ESP is used for authentication, AH is used for encryption
  • ESP is used for tunnel mode, AH is used for transport mode
  • ESP provides confidentiality, AH provides authentication
  • AH protects the IP header, ESP does not (correct)
  • Why is AH still useful despite ESP providing encryption and authentication?
