Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation. RSA (Rivest Shamir Adleman) is the correct answer. EDIT: Encryption seems like correct answer based on your wording in the question. EDIT: It states that Both private and public keys are used-encryption uses the public key.
Detailed explanation-2: -RSA private and public keys. An RSA key pair includes a private and a public key. The RSA private key is used to generate digital signatures, and the RSA public key is used to verify digital signatures. The RSA public key is also used for key encryption of DES or AES DATA keys and the RSA private key for key recovery.
Detailed explanation-3: -PGP is an example of a protocol that uses both symmetric cryptography and public key cryptography (asymmetric).
Detailed explanation-4: -Anyone can have access to a public key to encrypt data, but only an individual who has the matching private key can decrypt the data. Since the public and private keys are mathematically connected, they are used together to encrypt and decrypt information.
