Answer:

a) Generate a new public and private key

Explanation:

You encrypt a message using the recipient's public key and the recipient decrypts the message using his own private key. Only the public key can be known by an external agent. The private key is for the individual and is not expected to be shared. In the event that the recipient cannot decrypt the message, it is unsafe to send one's private key to him. He does not even need one's private key to decrypt the message, he needs his own private key.

The best thing to do is to generate another means of security by generating new public and private key so that the sender encrypts the message with the new public key and the receiver decrypts it using his new private key.

Option B is wrong because, if the encryption is removed, the aim, which is to secure the message from intruders is not achieved.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

CPU.

Explanation:

A processor, also known as a Central Processing Unit, is a piece of hardware in a computer that performs basic operations and control when executing program code.

Processors are usually made as integrated circuits closed in a hermetic casing, often with gold-plated leads (used for resistance to oxidation) and in this form they are called microprocessors - in common speech the terms processor and microprocessor are used interchangeably. The heart of the processor is a single crystal of silicon, on which a series of semiconductor layers have been applied by means of photolithography, forming, depending on the application, a network of several thousand to several billion transistors. Its circuits are made of metals with good electrical conductivity, such as aluminum and copper.
