Unix crypt(3)

Target entity: Unix crypt(3)
Context triple: [John the Ripper, supportsHashType, Unix crypt(3)]

• A. CRYPTO
  CRYPTO is a premier international research conference focused on cryptology and information security, organized annually by the International Association for Cryptologic Research.
• B. CRAM-MD5
  CRAM-MD5 is a challenge–response authentication mechanism that uses MD5 hashing to securely verify a user's identity without transmitting their password in plaintext.
• C. John the Ripper
  John the Ripper is a widely used open-source password cracking tool designed for security auditing and penetration testing.
• D. PBKDF2
  PBKDF2 is a key derivation function that strengthens passwords by applying repeated hashing with a salt to produce cryptographic keys resistant to brute-force attacks.
• E. Lucifer cipher
  The Lucifer cipher is an early block cipher developed at IBM by Horst Feistel that served as a foundational design precursor to the Data Encryption Standard (DES).
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Target entity: Unix crypt(3)
Target entity description: Unix crypt(3) is a traditional Unix library function and algorithm used to hash and verify passwords, historically based on modified DES and later extended to support stronger schemes.
