g strategies and word patterns: the code book
from the code book: the science of secrecy from ancient egypt to quantum cryptography
only a small fraction of the information flowing around the world is securely encrypted, and the remainder is poorly encrypted, or not encrypted at all. this is because the number of internet users is rapidly increasing, and yet few of these people take adequate precautions in terms of privacy. in turn, this means that national security organizations, law enforcers and anybody else with a curious mind can get their hands on more information than they can cope with.
—the code book, simon singh
which details support the central idea that information on the internet is not protected well enough? choose three correct answers.
\only a small fraction ... is securely encrypted\
\the remainder is poorly encrypted\
\the number of internet users\
\people take adequate precautions in terms of privacy\
\anybody ... can get their hands on more information\
The statement "only a small fraction... is securely encrypted" shows limited secure - encryption. "the remainder is poorly encrypted" indicates the poor state of non - securely encrypted data. "anybody... can get their hands on more information" implies lack of protection as unauthorized parties can access data. The number of Internet users alone doesn't directly show lack of protection, and "people take adequate precautions" is contrary to the idea of poor protection.
