Enc yp ion algo i hms a e di ided in o wo ypes: "symme ic" and "asymme ic." In
symme ic enc yp ion, bo h enc yp ion and dec yp ion a e pe o med using a single

Basic symme ic algo i hms
The ollowing well-known symme ic enc yp ion algo i hms we e analyzed:
- DES (Da a Enc yp ion S anda d): 64-bi block algo i hm wi h a 56-bi key. Today,
he le el o secu i y is conside ed low.
- AES (Ad anced Enc yp ion S anda d): 128/192/256-bi key, high le el in e ms o
