Q

What is a backbone network?

A

backbone in networking is the part of your network that ties different departmental networks into a single whole.

The backbone carries the bulk of the network traffic and must be designed accordingly

e.g. CANARIE is the not-for-profit organisation which operates the national backbone network of Canada’s national research and education network

Network Types

what is a broadcast network

A

it means one-to-many

for instance…
radio, or TV are examples where one person broadcasts information to many receivers.

also

for ethernet (wifi and wired) having multiple receivers would be an unwanted side effect.

In many usage scenarios there is a need to consider security measures (e.g. to avoid eavesdropping)

Q

Explain the domain name service

A

Domain name system provides names that translate to IP addresses

for instance, it translates ‘google.ca’ into an IP address so you don’t have to memorize the IP address

your computer automatically knows at least one domain name server, which it asks to translate unknown names.

Q

What is symmetric cryptography?

A

encryption and decryption uses the same key.

the problem is all parties must exchange a key before they can start to communicate.

longer keys are more secure

symmetric cryptography uses a previously exchanged secret key to encrypt and decrypt messages

Q

What is asymmetric cyptography

A

a message that is encrypted with both a public key and a private key.

private key: only the creator knows it

public key: everybody may know it, it is publicly available.

all messages are encrypted with one key and can be decrypted by the other key (it works in both dirrections)

asymmetric cryptography uses a pair of keys (public and private key) to encrypt and decrypt the messages

Q

explain how to send a secret message with public key encryption

A

a message is encrypted with a public key, and the recipient decrypts it with a private key.

106
Q

how to verify the sender of a message with public key encryption.

A

the sender encrypts a message with a private key.

the receiver decrypts the message with a public key.

because the sender is using the public key to decrypt, the message must come from the sender, because only they know the private key.

SO essentially…. when a message is encrypted with a private key it can be verified.

Q

What is a cryptographic hash?

A

*a cryptographic hash is a “fingerprint” of a message used to prove that the message was not altered *

a hash function scrambles the bits of a document (of any length) into a fixed-length hash.

this fixed length hash is a sequence of 256 bits.

the hash identifies a message or file, and confirms that it has not been tampered with or altered.

even a tiny change in the document will result in a completely different hash.

it is very challenging to reverse a hash..

the function of hashes

1) to ensure the document was not changed in transit
2) prove that it was authorized by the signer

Q

How do digital signatures work / what are they used for?

A

*a digital signature verifies the originator of a document and that it was not altered, typically signed documents are not encrypted *

A digital signature is used to verify the authenticity of digital messages or document.

digital signatures use hash encryption to do this.

a hash is generated for the document.. then it is encrypted with a private key to form a digitally signed document.

the verifier takes the digitally signed document…. they simultaneously use the public key to decrypt it… separately, they also use the hash algorithm…. they then compare the two hashes. If they match the message has not been tampered with.

they prove

1) the document was created / approved by the signer
2) the document was not altered in transit.

Q

What is a digital certificate?

A
  • a digital certificate proves that a certain public key belongs to a person, institution, or domain*

a way to make sure that a public key used for a signature is not fake.

digital certificates prove the ownership of public keys.

important components of a certificate:

  • public key of the user
  • name/domain of the user
  • expiry date
  • digital signature of the certification issuer (usually a well established certification authority)

the issuers signature verifies the public key and the subject’s name stated in the certificate.

Q

How does HTTPS use digital certificates?

A

1) client requests HTTPS session
2) certificate is sent back (with public key)
3) client creates random session key
4) session key is encrypted with public key (at this point only the client knows the session key)
5) encryption session key is sent over to the server
6) session key decrypted with private key (at this point both the client and the server know the seeing key)
7) session encrypted with SYMMETRIC session key

1) use asymmetric encryption (public key encryption) to exchange a secret key between parties
2) continue communication with a faster symmetric encryption
