What is asymmetric?

FAQs - FlexiDial
ADSL line can cope with transferring a set number of bits per second – the bitrate – regardless of direction. This can be varied to allow more bits to download rather than upload and vice versa. ADSL is intended for client computers rather than servers it has been configured to increase the download speed which in turn reduces the upload speed. This type of connection is known as asymmetric.

Compare Broadband ISPs
Most homes and small business users are connected to an asymmetric DSL (ADSL) line. ADSL divides up the available frequencies in a line on the assumption that most Internet users look at, or download, much more information than they send, or upload. Under this assumption, if the connection speed from the Internet to the user is three to four times faster than the connection from the user back to the Internet, then the user will see the most benefit (most of the time).

What crypto standards are there?

IEEE-1363 and forthcoming amendments cover various public key algorithms, and have a lot of practical implementation information. http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1363/ For network security protocols, see SSH, IPSEC, SSL (TLS), and S/MIME. These are widely available, and it is nearly always better to use one of these, than to reinvent the wheel. Some others are mentioned here: http://www.nue.et-inf.uni-siegen.de/~schmidt/tcsecurity/protocols.html Some other important standards (such as X.

What the heck is Crypto anyhow?

POKER FORUM : Nside's Crypto FAQ v 1.0 : Internet Texas Hold...
Crypto is a network of poker sites whose actual name is the Cryptologic network. They are generally run by on-line casino sites. All of the sites share the same tables, so you could be playing with a table where everyone at the place is from a different site. For the most part, each site looks the same except that they have different ugly background colors.

What do you mean by Asymmetric?

i-choice
ADSL is asymmetric in that it transmits data faster downstream than it does upstream. This is appropriate for surfing the Internet, for example, where large amounts of data are transferred from the network to the user, and much less data is passed back to the network. Traditional systems, like most modem connections, have been symmetric.

Why are Easy Rider kayaks asymmetric?

Easy Rider's Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)
There are several reasons why our kayaks are asymmetric, i.e. why the widest point of the craft is aft of the center: Like Olympic racing craft, our kayaks require the least amount of muscle power to reach optimum cruising speeds. Asymmetric kayaks provide an optimum of stern cargo area, with a minimum of trim sensitivity. Therefore, our double seaters are easy to paddle solo (from the stern cockpit).

Sect. 16) Where can I find crypto libraries?

Java Programmer's FAQ - Part D
Cryptographic libraries are not part of the release because US Government policy classifies strong cryptography under the same rules as munitions. Its export is regulated under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. Many people regard this as a Kafka-esque (and futile) attempt to stem the use of cryptography inside the US. Late in 2000, the US government relaxed the "crypto software" export regulations somewhat, permitting certain formerly forbidden products to be exported.

Unfortunately I had not noted which crypto kernel was installed prior to my update; and I am wondering where I may download a v4 crypto kernel if such is available. The browser 'translates' a numeric link on a web page as a phone number (e.g. http://wap.aaa.com/123456.wml) and is opening the SMS application. Can I change that? It's annoying to copy the link address and paste it manually (goto). Where do I get Brick Breaker? On RIM's website, It mentions that Brick Breaker is included.

What Is Asymmetric DSL (ADSL)?

DSL Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
ADSL is short for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. It has a downloading (downstream) speed that is greater than the uploading (upstream) speed, and can transfer up to 8Mb of data per second (for downloading) and more than 600Kbps when uploading. This type of high speed DSL access is highly suitable for Internet users who need to download files quickly, but don't really need to upload files often or fast.

What is Asymmetric (or Key Pair) Encryption?

PKI - CCRA Electronic Commerce Security FAQ
Asymmetric encryption works differently in that a user would have a key pair, one public and one private. These keys are carefully chosen so that a message encrypted with a public key could only be decrypted with the private key. So for example, the sender would locate the receiver's public key (they could even have it emailed to them, since it is public information), and use that to encrypt the message. The receiver would then decrypt the message with their private key.

What is public/asymmetric key cryptography?

Digital Certificate Registration Center
Public key (asymmetric) cryptography is a system based on pairs of keys called public key and private key. The public key is published while the private key is kept secret with the owner. The need for a sender and a receiver to share a secret key and trust some communications channel is eliminated. This concept was introduced in 1976 by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman.

What are Symmetric and Asymmetric Keys?

Tamilnadunri.com
Encryption algorithms come in two broad flavors: symmetric and asymmetric. Symmetric algorithms use the same key to lock and unlock a document. Asymmetric algorithms use two different keys: when one is used to lock a document only the other can be used to unlock it. Asymmetric algorithms are also known as "Public Key Algorithms". Symmetric keys are usually large random numbers. Asymmetric keys are usually a set of related numbers.

Will quantum computers make all this crypto obsolete?

Not in our lifetimes. Quantum cryptography along a single fiber optic strand has been demonstrated, and claims to offer provable security in a certain narrow academic sense, like the one-time pad. But to be practical, it has to be combined with conventional cryptography, in which case the quantum operations do not add much. Quantum computers threaten the future of RSA in about the same way that cold fusion threatens to solve the world's energy problems.

How big should my asymmetric key be?

PGP DH vs. RSA FAQ
NOTE: According to current mathematical & cryptographic knowledge, this section applies approximately equally to DH & RSA keys. (If anything, DH keys are more secure, but the difference currently appears marginal). Security. One of key factors of the strength of systems like PGP is the size of the public / private key pairs. For the majority of users, the main factor in the selection of PK size will be security.

Q15. What does "asymmetric" mean?

Twang Net > Products > Connectivity > ADSL > FAQ...
It is called 'asymmetric' because it moves data more quickly from exchange to the customer than from the customer to the exchange. This makes it particularly suitable for applications where customers expect to receive (download) more data than they transmit (upload).

Why are some variations of xDSL asymmetric?

XDSL FAQ - WikiFAQ - Answers to Frequently Asked Questions (...
It is primarily due to near-end crosstalk (NEXT). The large bundle of wire at the CO is heavily susceptible to crosstalk, particularly with regards to the signal that travels from the far end (the end user). At the far end, there are fewer problems with NEXT so bandwidth is greater from the CO to the user. High bit rates, or in this case, higher frequencies suffer a greater amount of attenuation.

Is symmetric encrpytion better then asymmetric encryption?

Retroshare Instant Messenger
We think yes, as you need to transfer the public key over a second communication line, like an USB-Stick or over email. So if no third party node is in the middle of both, the clocked packet and the key for that packet, no one can decrypt the packet without the key.
