In a public key cryptographic system, which of the following is the PRIMARY requirement to address the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks through spoofing?

While strong encryption algorithms (A) are important for securing data, they alone cannot prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Kerberos authentication (B) is a separate protocol not directly related to public key cryptography. A registration authority (C) may be part of a PKI but is not the primary element in preventing spoofing attacks.
