Hybrid Cryptography combines the strengths of both symmetric-key and asymmetric-key cryptographic algorithms to achieve efficient and secure communication. It typically uses public-key cryptography to securely exchange a session key, which is then used for faster symmetric-key encryption of the actual data. In digital asset systems, this approach can optimize the balance between computational cost and security for various operations. Its function is to provide robust data protection while maintaining practical performance.
Context
Hybrid Cryptography is a standard practice in secure digital communications and finds applications in various aspects of digital asset security, including secure wallet communication and data storage. Discussions often center on the selection of appropriate algorithms and the secure management of cryptographic keys to prevent vulnerabilities. Future developments will likely involve adapting hybrid cryptographic schemes to quantum-resistant algorithms, preparing digital asset systems for potential threats posed by future quantum computing capabilities.
