DES is a Symmetric Key algorithm, meaning the same key is used for encryption and decryption.<br \/>\nFor the exam remember that: DES key Sequence is 8 Bytes or 64 bits (8 x 8 = 64 bits) DES has an Effective key length of only 56 Bits. 8 of the Bits are used for parity purpose only. DES has a total key length of 64 Bits.<br \/>\nThe following answers are incorrect:<br \/>\nTwo-key This is incorrect because DES uses the same key for encryption and decryption.<br \/>\nAsymmetric Key This is incorrect because DES is a Symmetric Key algorithm using the same key for encryption and decryption and an Asymmetric Key algorithm uses both a Public Key and a Private Key.<br \/>\nPublic Key. This is incorrect because Public Key or algorithm Asymmetric Key does not use the same key is used for encryption and decryption.<br \/>\nReferences used for this question: <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Data_Encryption_Standard\" title=\"External link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Data_Encryption_Standard<\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/strong><\/span> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The DES algorithm is an example of what type of cryptography?
