Symmetric Cryptography

🔐 Welcome to our deep dive into symmetric cryptography, where we explore the fundamental encryption techniques that protect sensitive data worldwide. In this video, we cover three major encryption standards: ✅ Data Encryption Standard (DES) – Once a widely used encryption method, DES is now considered weak due to its small key size and vulnerability to brute-force attacks. ✅ Triple DES (3DES) – An improvement over DES that applies encryption three times for enhanced security, but still slower and being phased out. ✅ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) – The gold standard in encryption today, used globally for securing classified and sensitive information. Why Symmetric Cryptography? Symmetric encryption is fast, efficient, and widely used in securing data at rest and in transit. However, key management is crucial, as sharing the same key between sender and receiver poses security challenges.
