Question: Suppose Alice and Bob use Diffie - Hellman Key Exchange to create a symmetric key. Assume also that Alice and Bob selected the values a
Suppose Alice and Bob use DiffieHellman Key Exchange to create a
symmetric key. Assume also that Alice and Bob selected the values a and
b respectively, as shown in the figure below. Accordingly, Alice computes
mod and sends it to Bob, while Bob computes mod and sends it
to Alice. Trudy wants to perform a maninthemiddle attack to establish a
single symmetric key with both Alice and Bob. Is this possible? if yes, what
value will Trudy calculate and send to Alice, given that Trudy chose the
value
Alice, a
Trudy,
Bob, b
Yes, this is possible. Trudy will send mod : to Alice
No Trudy cannot establish a single symmetric key with both Alice and
Bob
Yes, this is possible. Trudy will send mod p to Alice
Yes, this is possible. Trudy will send mod p to Alice
Yes, this is possible. Trudy will send mod p to Alice
