  1. I think the ans is D.

    From book CCNA Cyber Ops SECFND #210-250 Official Cert Guide:
    “Once again, MD5 is a hash function that is insecure and should be avoided. SHA-1 is a legacy algorithm and therefore is adequately secure. SHA-256 provides adequate protection for sensitive information. On the other hand, SHA-384 is required to protect classified information of higher importance.”

  2. the answer is D
    it’s ask for least secure? not the most secure, MD5 strongest hash then others
