Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which one incorrect referring to encryption?
A
There are 2 types of encryption including asymmetric and symmetric encryption
B
symmetric encryption use 2 digital keys such as public key and private key.
C
asymmetric encryption use 2 digital keys such as public key and private key.
D
symmetric encryption use same digital key to encrypt and decrypt the message.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Symmetric encryption uses the same key to perform both encryption and decryption functions. Symmetric encryption uses a shared private key while asymmetric encryption uses a public/private key pair. Another difference between asymmetric and symmetric encryption is the length of the keys.

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct response is true. Asymmetric keys use two separate keys, one key to encrypt and one key to decrypt information. These are known as public and private key pairs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Public key cryptography, also known as asymmetric cryptography, uses two separate keys instead of one shared one: a public key and a private key. Public key cryptography is an important technology for Internet security.
