Cryptography And Network Security Atul Kahate Ppt -

There are two main types of cryptography: symmetric key cryptography and asymmetric key cryptography. Symmetric key cryptography uses the same secret key for both encryption and decryption, whereas asymmetric key cryptography uses a pair of keys: a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption. Hash functions are another type of cryptography that is used to ensure data integrity.
