The faster symmetric method secures email. b) Comparatively, symmetric encryption is slower and less safe. Asymmetric uses a single key for encryption and decryption, while symmetric uses two. c) Only websites employ symmetric encryption, while emails utilize asymmetric. d) Symmetric and asymmetric encryption are interchangeable. e) Asymmetric encryption employs one key for encryption and decryption, while symmetric uses two. Symmetric is faster but riskier. f) Symmetric encryption employs one key for encryption and decryption, while asymmetric uses two. The slower but more secure symmetric method is employed to secure data at rest.
