What is one of the advantages of using both symmetric and asymmetric cryptogrsphy in SSL/TLS?
The correct answer is D. Asymmetric cryptography is computationally expensive in comparison. However, it is well-suited. See the full explanation below for the reasoning.
Question
What is one of the advantages of using both symmetric and asymmetric cryptogrsphy in SSL/TLS?
Options
- ASupporting both types of algorithms allows less-powerful devices such as mobile phones to use
- BSymmetric algorithms such as AES provide a failsafe when asymmetric methods fail.
- CSymmetric encryption allows the server to security transmit the session keys out-of-band.
- DAsymmetric cryptography is computationally expensive in comparison. However, it is well-suited
