• Asymmetric encryption • Uses mathematical equations of curves • Very lightweight on resources |
ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) |
|
• Asymmetric encryption • Based off of Diffie-Hellman key exchange • Used extensively for web site encryption/DRM • 1,024-4,096 bit key sizes |
RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adelman) |
|
• Asymmetric encryption • Very simple encryption/decryption process • Unbreakable when used correctly |
One-Time Pad |
|
• Symmetric encryption • Not common due to logical predictability • 40-2,048 bit key size |
RC4 (Ron's Code 4) |
|
