XML Encryption

Target entity: XML Encryption
Context triple: [XML technology stack, includesStandard, XML Encryption]

• A. Data Encryption Standard
  Data Encryption Standard is an older symmetric-key block cipher algorithm once widely used for data protection but now considered insecure and largely superseded by stronger standards.
• B. Microsoft Office encryption (legacy)
  Microsoft Office encryption (legacy) refers to the older, less secure document protection system in early Office versions that relied on the RC4 stream cipher and is now considered cryptographically weak.
• C. Always Encrypted
  Always Encrypted is a SQL Server security feature that protects sensitive data by encrypting it both at rest and in transit while keeping encryption keys only on the client side.
• D. CRYPTO
  CRYPTO is a premier international research conference focused on cryptology and information security, organized annually by the International Association for Cryptologic Research.
• E. S/MIME
  S/MIME is a widely used standard for secure email that provides encryption and digital signatures using public key cryptography.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
