    Driver types are used to categorize the technology used to connect to the database.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Driver types are indeed used to categorize the technology used to connect to the database. Different driver types are designed to work with specific database management systems (DBMS) and provide the necessary functionality for applications to communicate with the database. The driver type determines the method and protocol used for communication, such as ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) for a wide range of databases, JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) for Java applications, or specific drivers for popular DBMS like MySQL or Oracle. Categorizing driver types helps developers choose the appropriate driver for their specific database technology.

    • A.

      JDBC

    • B.

      ODBC

    Correct Answer
    B. ODBC
    Explanation
    ODBC stands for Open Database Connectivity, which is an Application Programming Interface (API) provided by Microsoft. It allows developers to access different types of databases using a common set of functions. ODBC uses SQL (Structured Query Language) as its database language, which is a standard language for managing and manipulating databases. Therefore, ODBC is the correct answer as it aligns with the provided description.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    JDBC is ODBC translated into an object-oriented interface that is natural for java programmiers.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    JDBC stands for Java Database Connectivity, which is an API that provides a standard way for Java programmers to interact with databases. It allows Java applications to connect to and manipulate databases using SQL queries. ODBC, on the other hand, is a similar API that provides a standard way for applications to interact with databases, but it is not object-oriented and is primarily used in non-Java environments. Therefore, the statement that JDBC is ODBC translated into an object-oriented interface that is natural for Java programmers is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    In this Data processing Model,the client communicates directly to the database server without the help  of any middle-ware technologies or another server.

    • A.

      Two-tier Data processing Model

    • B.

      Three - tier Data processing Model

    Correct Answer
    A. Two-tier Data processing Model
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "Two-tier Data processing Model". In this model, the client communicates directly with the database server without the need for any middle-ware technologies or another server. This means that the client application handles both the presentation layer and the data access layer, resulting in a simpler architecture. The client sends requests directly to the database server, which processes them and sends the response back to the client. This model is often used for smaller applications where the client and database server are located on the same machine or within a local network.

    The Type 1 driver is also known as JDBC-ODBC bridge plus ODBC driver.

    • A.

      Translates JDBC calls into ODBC calls.

    • B.

      Translates JDBC calls into database=specific calls or native calls

    • C.

      Maps JDBC calls to the underlying "network" protocol, which in turn calls native methods on the server.

    • D.

      Directly calls RDBMS from client machine.

    Correct Answer
    A. Translates JDBC calls into ODBC calls.
    Explanation
    The Type 1 driver, also known as JDBC-ODBC bridge plus ODBC driver, translates JDBC calls into ODBC calls. This means that when a Java application makes a JDBC call, the Type 1 driver converts that call into an equivalent ODBC call, which is then executed by the ODBC driver. This allows the Java application to interact with a database using the ODBC interface, which is a common interface for accessing databases in many programming languages.

    A client application uses stored procedures increases the network traffic, but it reduces the number of times a database is accessed.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Using stored procedures in a client application does not increase network traffic. In fact, it can reduce the network traffic because the client application can send a single request to the database server, which then executes the necessary stored procedures. This eliminates the need for multiple round-trips between the client and the database server. However, using stored procedures does not necessarily reduce the number of times a database is accessed, as it depends on the specific implementation and usage of the stored procedures.

    With this padding technique a short block is padded with a repeating byte.

    • A.

      DES

    • B.

      PKCS5

    • C.

      CBC

    Correct Answer
    B. PKCS5
    Explanation
    PKCS5 is a padding technique used in DES (Data Encryption Standard) and other cryptographic algorithms. It involves padding a short block of data with a repeating byte. This ensures that the block is extended to the required length before encryption. The use of a repeating byte simplifies the padding process and allows for easy removal of the padding during decryption. PKCS5 padding is widely used and provides a secure and efficient method for encrypting data with DES in a CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) mode.

    Single-bit ciphers are called:

    • A.

      Block cipher

    • B.

      Stream cipher

    Correct Answer
    B. Stream cipHer
    Explanation
    Single-bit ciphers are called stream ciphers. Stream ciphers encrypt data one bit or one byte at a time, in a continuous stream. They are typically used for real-time communication applications, as they can encrypt and decrypt data as it is being transmitted. Stream ciphers are known for their speed and efficiency, making them suitable for applications where high-speed encryption is required. In contrast, block ciphers encrypt data in fixed-size blocks, such as 64 or 128 bits, and are commonly used for data storage and transmission where the entire block needs to be processed at once.

    Cipher objects are created using this method of the cipher class.

    • A.

      GetInstance();

    • B.

      Init();

    Correct Answer
    A. GetInstance();
    Explanation
    The getInstance() method is used to create Cipher objects in the cipher class. It is a static method that returns a new instance of the Cipher class. This method is commonly used for creating cipher objects for encryption and decryption operations in various cryptographic algorithms. The init() method, on the other hand, is used to initialize a cipher object with a specific mode, padding scheme, and key. However, in this context, the getInstance() method is the correct answer as it directly refers to the creation of Cipher objects.

    The cipher object is initialized by the init() method?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because in order to use a cipher object for encryption or decryption, it needs to be initialized with the init() method. This method sets up the cipher object with the necessary parameters and key to perform the cryptographic operation. Without initialization, the cipher object would not be able to function properly and perform encryption or decryption operations.

    Most these implementations mix a random number, known as the "salt" with the password text to derive an encrypted key.

    • A.

      Encryption and Decryption

    • B.

      Key Agreement

    • C.

      Password Base Encryption

    Correct Answer
    C. Password Base Encryption
    Explanation
    Password-based encryption is a method that uses a password to encrypt and decrypt data. In this method, a random number called a "salt" is mixed with the password text to derive an encrypted key. This salt adds an extra layer of security by making it harder for attackers to guess the password. By combining the salt and the password, a unique key is generated for each encryption operation, making it more difficult for unauthorized users to gain access to the encrypted data.

    Single bits or a block of bits can be encrypted into cipher blocks

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Single bits or a block of bits can be encrypted into cipher blocks. Encryption is the process of converting plaintext into ciphertext to protect the information from unauthorized access. In many encryption algorithms, such as symmetric key encryption or block ciphers, the plaintext is divided into blocks of fixed size (usually in bits) and each block is encrypted separately. Therefore, it is true that single bits or a block of bits can be encrypted into cipher blocks.

    In this Environment, the java application is the client and DBMS is the database server.

    • A.

      Three-Tier JDBC

    • B.

      Two-Tier JDBC

    Correct Answer
    B. Two-Tier JDBC
    Explanation
    The given answer, "Two-Tier JDBC," suggests that the architecture being described is a two-tier model. In this model, the Java application acts as the client, directly interacting with the database server (DBMS). This means that the application is responsible for both the presentation layer and the business logic layer, while the DBMS handles the data storage and retrieval. This architecture is commonly used for smaller applications where the client and server are located on the same machine or within a local network.
