Alice and Bob agree upon using Lamport one-time password algorithm with an original password PO, a counter 6, and a hash function h. What will be the third password generated by this algorithm and used by Alice and Bob? a. PO b. Oh3(p0) c. h(h(h(h(po d. h(h(h(po)) e. h(h(po))

The correct answer to the following question will be Option C (h(h(h(h(po.

Explanation:

As we recognize, the individual and device generate a linearly modified password that used a hash feature at the Lamport one-time code or password.

hn(x) = h(hn-1(x)) hn-1(x) = h(hn-2(x)) h2(x) = h(h(x)) h1x = h(x)

Suppose that Bob and Alice accept an initial P0 password as well as a counter 6.

The counter would be 6-1 that is 5 throughout the next step, as well as the password should be h5(P0). Which implies the third code created over the next step would be h4(P0).

So, Option C is the right answer.

this seems to be in the wrong category. but i'll take some free points my dude

posting this in wrong category will result in people seeing it who won't know the answer.
