Solution

Benefits of Encryption:

- Completely gives data protection.

- Provides security for the data so that the third party does not come inside to hack.

- And the data can be accessed by authorized people only. Anyone can not access without authorised credentials.

- Nowadays security available for all devices.

- Identity theft protection

Drawbacks of Encryption:

- Actually a very complex technology

- data encryption and decryption of data is too expensive

- we could not get the data if lose that security key

Differece between Symmetric and Asymmetric encryption:

- Symmetric is using only one key for both encrypt and decrypt the data. And it is also called secret key. And the symmetric can be use for bulk data.

- Asymmetric is using different keys. one for encrpyt and another one for decrypt. And it is also called public key. which can be used for secure communication.
