The concept that if one bit of data changes, the cipher text will all completely change as well.
- A . Avalanche
B. Substitution
C. Confusion
D. Collision
Suggested Answer: A
Explanation:
Avalanche
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_effect
In cryptography, the avalanche effect is the desirable property of cryptographic algorithms, typically block ciphers and cryptographic hash functions, wherein if an input is changed slightly (for example, flipping a single bit), the output changes significantly (e.g., half the output bits flip). In the case of high-quality block ciphers, such a small change in either the key or the plaintext should cause a drastic change in the ciphertext. The actual term was first used by Horst Feistel, although the concept dates back to at least Shannon's diffusion.
