secret key cryptography

    0.01 sec.
secret key cryptography
An encryption method that uses the same secret key to encrypt and decrypt messages. The problem with this method is transmitting the secret key to a legitimate person who needs it. Contrast with "public key cryptography," which uses a two-part key; one public and one private. See cryptography for details on both methods.
