CyberSecurity H4ck3d conference

Introduction

Excellent 3 days of the #H4CK3D 2022 event organized by Securetia and the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Palermo.

🔒 SSL is essential for encrypting web traffic and ensuring data security.
🔑 Symmetric encryption uses the same key for encryption and decryption, while asymmetric encryption uses a pair of public and private keys.
⚠️ Symmetric encryption is vulnerable due to the need to transmit the encryption key.
🚀 Asymmetric encryption eliminates the risk of key transmission by using a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption.
⏳ Asymmetric encryption is slower than symmetric encryption.
🌐 SSL plays a crucial role in secure web communication and protects sensitive information.
📝 Understanding SSL and encryption methods is important for ensuring data privacy and security.
