Cryptography Types
Cryptography categorized based on number of keys used for encryption and decryption; in this article we will discuss below three types

Secret Key Cryptography - It is also call symmetric encryption where for both encryption and decryption uses same key. This is mainly used for confidentiality.

Public Key Cryptography - It is also called asymmetric encryption; this algorithm uses two key's one for encryption and one for decryption. mainly used for authentication.

Hash Function - It uses to convert to text in such way that the input cannot be recoverable by using mathematical function.

Most of the time, Technical interview ruined the dreams of developers. These interviews are designed to test the developer's critical thinking and real-world problem-solving skills in several situations where they may come into play while on the job. For beginners, the situation is even painful. As they are not fully aware of the industry code problems and code challenges. So it's difficult for beginners in the technical interview to answer code problems in the fixed time. Code problems and code challenges help developers to become confident in the programming language, develop problem-solving skills, debugging skills, and gain more knowledge of the language. As a beginner, the developer should spend a good time on learning language, various algorithms, and data structure. To gain more hands-on experience developers need to solve code problems and code challenges. The code problems do not help directly to resolve real-times issues but they help ...
