What Are the Types of Data Encryption?

There are two main types of data encryption: symmetric encryption and asymmetric encryption. Symmetric encryption uses a single key for both encryption and decryption, making it faster but also potentially less secure if the key is compromised. Asymmetric encryption uses a pair of keys (public and private) and is generally more secure but slower. Business leaders need to choose the appropriate type based on their specific needs and resources.
