An administrator is testing the collision resistance of different hashing algorithms. Which of the following is the strongest collision resistance test?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Finding two identical messages with different hashes is the strongest collision resistance test because it demonstrates that the hashing algorithm is not able to consistently produce the same hash for the same message. This means that an attacker would not be able to use a hash collision to impersonate another user or to tamper with data.
