For some time it has been common practice to protect and tansport a key for DES encryption with triple-DES (3DES). The function follows an encrypt-decrypt-encrypt (EDE) sequence.

Decrypt sequence is simply the same (encrypt) operation with the keys reversed.

How many keys are used in triple encryption?

In 3DES, 3 distinct keys are used as K1, K2 and K3. First encrypt with K1, then Decrypt with K2 and finally Encrypt with K3 so actual key length used in 3DES is 168 excludin 8 bit party from each 64 bits means (56+56+56 becomes 168).

Is pgp encryption safer than other encryptions?

"Evaluating cryptography is difficult since without 'breaking' the encryption its hard to say whether one encryption is better or not. Pretty Good Encryption (PGP) is asymmetric, that is the encryption and decryption keys are different which may give it an edge on symmetric encryption."

Why is encryption use?

Mostly for performance - symmetric encryption is much much faster (order of magnitudes) than asymmetric encryption.
