Which among the following has not been broken yet( still collision free)?(a) MD-5(b) SHA-1(c) DES(d) SHA-2This question was posed to me in homework.The query is from Whirlpool Algorithm in section Message Authentication Codes, Whirlpool Algorithm and Key Management and Distribution of Cryptograph & Network Security

Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (d) SHA-2

Easy explanation: SHA-2 has not yet been broken, but since SHA-1 has been found to be not COLLISION free (and SHA-2 has the same LOGIC as SHA-1), SHA-3 ALGORITHM was developed and officialised in 2012.
