Just to clarify, the private key is for decrypting, right?

Public key encryption is standard practice, no doubt!

You'd use the recipient's public key to encrypt the message.

I feel like I might be mixing things up, but I think the private key is used for decryption. So, we should definitely be using the recipient's public key to encrypt the message.

This question is tricky! I recall a similar practice question where we had to choose between public and private keys. I think public keys are for encryption, but I could be wrong.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about using public keys for encryption. It feels like option C might be the right choice.

I think we need to use the recipient's public key to encrypt the message, right? That way only Rick can decrypt it with his private key.

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. Is there something I'm missing? I'll have to re-read the question and options.

I'm not totally confident, but I think a candidate key is the key that identifies every instance of an entity. So I'll go with option B.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to cover different email and messaging protocols, but I'm not sure which one specifically applies to the Cisco and Exchange integration. I'll have to think this through carefully.
