Question 3: a. A computer password is 6 characters long. A character can be either a digit or an uppercase English letter. A valid password must contain exactly one digit. How many valid passwords are there? (hint: you do not know the position of this one digit. It might be in the beginning or the end or the middle of the password. You may use the combination low to select the position of this digit and then assigno value to...

4: A certain computer program is accessed by entering a user-defined password. If the password a. can contain any lowercase letter, uppercase letter, or digit from 0-9, and must contain 10 characters, how many possible passwords are there if no character can be used more than once? Express your answer as a factorial statement. Is 8 an example of permutations or combinations? b.

3. A computer system uses passwords that contain exactly eight characters, and each character is one of the 26 lowercase letter (a -z) or 26 uppercase letters (A - Z) or 10 integers (0-9). Let Ω denote the set of all possible passwords. Suppose that all passwords in Ω are equally likely. Determine the probability for each of the following: (a) Password contains all lowercase letters given that it contains only letters (b) Password contains at least 1 uppercase letter...

Alice wants to evaluate a picture-based password system. The system has a database of 100 different pictures. To select a password, the user is allowed to browse through the database of pictures and select 20 pictures as their password. To authenticate, the user is presented with 20 challenges. Each challenge consists of 2 pictures displayed to the user: one is randomly chosen from the user's password set, and the other is randomly chosen from the remaining 80 pictures. The user...

1.4. We now consider the relation between passwords and key size. For this purpose we consider a cryptosystem where the user enters a key in the form of a password. 1. Assume a password consisting of 8 letters, where each letter is encoded by the ASCII scheme (7 bits per character, i.e., 128 possible characters). What is the size of the key space which can be constructed by such passwords? 2. What is the corresponding key length in bits?...

password has to be exactly 8 characters long. Must use: upper case letters- A, B, C,D...Z and lower case letters- a, b,c, d ..., z and digits- 0, 1,2, ..., 9 If A is the set of passwords with NO upper case letter and B is the set of passwords with NO lower case letter, then what is the size of |A ∪ B|?
