1. the initial encryption standard developed by NIST
1. the initial encryption standard developed by NIST was called data encryption standard (DES). DES is too weak
for modern applications since the key size is only 56-bit. It was replaced by advanced encryption standard (AES). AES has variable key sizes and can require a key size of 256-bit. Discuss if you think AES key size has a direct relationship with algorithm strength
2. what are the advantages and disadvantages of using Asymmetric encryption?
