Question

Blowfish encrypts blocks of plaintext which have size

(a) 256 bits

(b) 64 bits

(c) 72 bits

(d) 128 bits

The question was posed to me in an online interview.

My question comes from Blowfish Algorithm topic in division Pseudorandom Number Generation and Stream Ciphers and More Block Ciphers of Cryptograph & Network Security

Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) 72 bits

To explain I would say: The size of the blocks of the plaintext is 64 bits each.
