- Symmetric encryption a single shared secret (key) is used for both encryption and decryption.

- Asymmetric encryption a public/private key pair is used; the public key encrypts and the private key decrypts.

Key lifecycle and security notes
2727
- Private keys must be kept confidential. Do not distribute private keys.
2828
- If a private key is leaked, an attacker can decrypt any content encrypted with the corresponding public key. Rotate (revoke and reissue) the key pair if compromise is suspected.

- Conversely, if you lose a private key and you do not have a backup, you will not be able to decrypt content that was encrypted for that key—make secure backups as appropriate.

Using X.509 certificates

- CryptoNet can use the public/private keys stored in X.509 certificates as an alternative to self-generated keys. This can simplify key distribution and lifecycle when using enterprise PKI.
