Question

3. What is an advantage symmetric key encryption has over asymmetric key encryption?
O Symmetric keys can be exchanged more securely than asymmetric keys.
Symmetric key encryption is faster than asymmetric key encryption.
Symmetric key encryption provides better security against Man-in-the-middle attacks than is possible with
asymmetric key encryption.
Symmetric key encryption is harder to break than asymmetric key encryption.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The main advantage of symmetric encryption over asymmetric encryption is that it is fast and efficient for large amounts of data; the disadvantage is the need to keep the key secret - this can be especially challenging where encryption and decryption take place in different locations, requiring the key to be moved
