What type of Asymmetric
encryption uses
different keys to Asymmetric cryptography, also
encrypt and known as public key cryptography,
decrypt the uses public and private keys to
message? encrypt and decrypt data.
+Secure
+Asymmetric
+Private key
+Symmetric
,The most widely RSA
used asymmetric
encryption The RSA encryption algorithm is one
algorithm is of the most widely used public key
what? encryption algorithms that have ever
been invented. It was created by the
+Caesar Cipher three scientists Ronald Rivest, Adi
+Vigenere Shamir, and Leonard Adleman in
+RSA 1977, and today it is increasingly
+DES being used in the network area.
Plaintext
Original,
unencrypted
Plaintext is a term used in
information is
cryptography that refers to a
referred to as
message before encryption or after
____.
decryption. That is, it is a message in
a form that is easily readable by
+text
humans. Encryption is the process of
+plaintext
obscuring messages to make them
+cleantext
unreadable in the absence special
+ciphertext
knowledge
,Which of the DES
following is not
an asymmetric The Data Encryption Standard is a
system? symmetric-key algorithm for the
encryption of electronic data.
+SSL Although now considered insecure,
+DES it was highly influential in the
+PGP advancement of modern
+RSA cryptography.
