How does the encryption process work with a 48-bit key?

Encryption with a 48-bit key involves using a specific algorithm to scramble the data into a code that can only be deciphered with the correct key. The key, which is 48 bits long, determines how the data is encrypted and decrypted. The longer the key, the more secure the encryption, as there are more possible combinations to crack.


Asymmetric encryption involves?

The asymmetric key algorithms are used to create a mathematically related key pair: a secret private keyand a published public key.


Public key encryption is also known as asymmetric encryption?

Yes. Public Key encryption (or asymmetric encryption) requires a pair of keys; a public and a private key for exchanging data in a secure manner.


How does asymmetric encryption provide confidentiality?

Asymmetric encryption can provide confidentiality in two ways:1) messages encrypted using the public key of the recipient can only be decrypted using the private key of the recipient - which only the recipient should possess.2) It can be used as part of a negotiation process between two users to establish a temporary shared key through a process such as the following:User A sends a challenge message to user B which is encrypted with user B's public key to initiate secure communications.User B decrypts the message and sends the correct response back to user A encrypted with user A's public keyThe two users are now authenticated to each otherAt this point A can send a proposed symmetric key to B encrypted with B's private keyAll further communications are encrypted via the shared symmetric keyIn this second scenario, the asymmetric encryption only facilitates the establishment of confidentiality via the eventually shared symmetric key by securing the initial negotiations.

How are classical encryption techniques like modern symmetric-key cipher?

In symmetric key techniques there is a single key and that key is kept secret. Symmetric key is a like a sub part of classical encryption.


Which type of encryption process uses the same key for encryption and decryption?

A: Symmetric


How does symmetric key encryption work?

Symmetric encryption requires that both parties (sender and receiver) know and have the exact same encryption key. This key is used both for encrypting and decrypting the data. Using the same encryption algorithm means that only those individuals that know or have the same key will be able to read any messages encrypted by the symmetric key.


Does asymmetric encryption involves keys?

Symmetric encryption requires one key known by both parties. Asymmetric encryption uses two keys, one encryption key known publicly and one decryption key known only by the recipient.Or more simply put,YesA public and private key


Which encryption standard uses the same key for encryption and decryption and offers low overhead?

Symmetric


What is a symmetric encryption?

Symmetric-key algorithms are a class of algorithms for cryptography that use trivially related, often identical, cryptographic keys for both decryption and encryption.


What does the word symmetric encryption mean?

The term "symmetric encryption" refers to a form of computerized cryptography that uses a singular encryption key to guise an electronic message so that it can be sent in a secure manner.

What happens in symmetric encryption?

A key is used to encipher something. The same key can be used to decipher it.


What is a disadvantage of symmetric cryptography?

In symmetric key encryption there is one key that is shared with the person you want to share with your data. The largest disadvantage is that you have to make sure that the key remain secret.
