In double DES, two different keys (k1, k2) are used to encrypt the plaintext to ciphertext. Why isn't it twice as secure as DES? Explain briefly.

In SSL and TLS, why is there a separate Change Cipher Spec Protocol rather than including a change_cipher_spec message in the Handshake Protocol?

1.46. Explain why the cipher e_k(m) = k ⊕ m and d_k(c) = k ⊕ c defined by XOR of bit strings is not secure against a chosen plaintext attack. Demonstrate your attack by finding the private key used to encrypt the 16-bit ciphertext c = 1001010001010111 if you know that the corresponding plaintext is m = 0010010000101100.
