Question

Both symmetric and asymmetric encryption methods have their places in securing enterprise data. Compare and contrast where each of these is used in real life applications. Use at least one global example in identifying the differences of applications. Please answer the question fully thank you

Answer 1

SOLUTION -

Difference -

Symmetric encryption	Asymmetric encryption
It is conventional and simple	It is a complex type of encryption
It consists of single called symmetric key.	It consists of two keys namely public key and private key.
The single key is used in both encoding and decoding of the message	Public key is used by sender to encrypt the message and private key is used by receiver to decrypt the message.
For large data symmetric keys are preferred.	For better security asymmetric encryption is preferred.

General example:

I am having a mail account and a password for it. Here in these cases anybody in the world can send message to me. But I can only sign in the account and view the mails. This is the case same in the symmetric encryption.

I am using a digital certificate which consists of organization’s name, user’s name, country, address etc. I can extract the public key of me from the certificate. Using the public key I can decrypt the encrypted message. This is the case same in asymmetric application.
