That has to be a typo. Digital signatures don't inherently provide authorization. They provide integrity by ensuring data hasn't been tampered with and non-repudiation. Which validates the identity of the sender.

Is E a Typo? Non-rePUDIation would be correct if it is a typo...

Selected Answer: BE

The use of a digital signature ensures non-repudiation, meaning the sender cannot deny having sent the email. The signature is unique to the sender and proves that they were the one who sent the message.

B.) Integrity F.) Authorization My original answer was B and E. But I noticed it said Non-reduplication and NOT Non-repudiation. If this is somehow a typo, I change my answer to B & E however I am not familiar with the term Non-reduplication/

"Non-reduplication" is just mean. You suck, CompTIA.

Adding on to my complaining comment, this is straight from Mike Chapple's study guide: "Digital signatures rely on digital certificates and public key encryption and can help prove that the actual claimed sender was the real sender of the message and that the content of the message was not changed." So, that to me says it's B and E, assuming "non-reduplication" is actually a typo and not CompTIA being clowns.
