There are mainly two categories of cryptographic algorithms, symmetric and public key (asymmetric) cryptographic algorithms. Symmetric cryptography uses only one shared key. Sender and receiver agree on a key and encrypts and decrypt the messages using this key, respectively. The same key is used to encrypt and decrypt the data. Contrarily, public key cryptography requires two different keys, private key that is only known by the owner and public key that is delivered anyone freely. Data encrypted by the public key can only be decrypted by its private key counterpart. Correct answer is A.
