Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Practice Question

You need to email a 200 MB tar archive that must remain confidential. The mail server strips binary attachments, so you decide to generate an OpenPGP ASCII-armored file encrypted with AES-256 using a passphrase, all in one command on Kali Linux. Which command meets the requirement?

  • 7z a -p -mhe=on reports.7z reports.tar

  • zip -e -A reports.zip reports.tar

  • gpg --symmetric --cipher-algo AES256 --armor reports.tar

  • openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -in reports.tar -a -salt
