What is a characteristic of asymmetric algorithms?
- Key management is more difficult with asymmetric algorithms than it is with symmetric algorithms.
- Very long key lengths are used.
- Both the sender and the receiver know the key before communication is shared.
- Asymmetric algorithms are easier for hardware to accelerate.
Explanation: Asymmetric algorithms do not require a preshared key, which makes key management simpler. The longer key lengths that are used by asymmetric algorithms result in slower execution by devices.
