Asymmetric Cryptography

overall review score: 4.5
score is between 0 and 5
Asymmetric cryptography, also known as public-key cryptography, is a method of encrypting and decrypting information using different keys. It involves a pair of keys - a public key which can be shared openly, and a private key which is kept secret.

Key Features

  • Uses two different keys for encryption and decryption
  • Secure method for communication and data exchange
  • Key distribution is easier compared to symmetric cryptography
  • Provides digital signatures for authentication

Pros

  • Enhanced security for data transmission
  • Digital signatures provide non-repudiation
  • Allows for secure communication over insecure networks

Cons

  • Requires more computational power compared to symmetric cryptography
  • Key management can be complex in large-scale systems
