Answer:

B. Symmetric key encryption

Explanation:

Symmetric key encryption is one in which a single encryption key is sent to the receiver so both sender and receiver share the same key. In this type of encryption, the sender uses a particular key to encrypt the data and sends the encrypted data (cipher data) to the receiver and then the receiver uses the same key to decrypt the data.

Public key encryption, or asymmetric encryption uses two keys - a private key and a public key. The public key is know to everyone while the private key is known only to those for whom the message is intended. An application of this type of encryption is in SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) - a protocol for transmitting data privately on the internet.

Private key encryption is not exactly one of the encryption methods but rather, a private key and a public key are used in encryption.

The best option is therefore <em>symmetric key encryption</em>.

The most important security consideration for the station is code signing. With code signing, consumers may feel confident about the software they are downloading and can stop worrying about infecting their computer.

With code signing, consumers may feel confident about the software they are downloading and can stop worrying about infecting their computer or mobile device with malware. Code signing has grown in importance for software developers and distributors as more software may be downloaded from the Internet.

Malware can be easily installed on a victim's computer by an attacker who poses as a trustworthy source. As long as users only download software that is regarded as safe by their operating system, code signing ensures that these types of assaults cannot happen.

Nowadays, the Operating System looks for the digital certificate produced through code signing when software is downloaded onto a computer to ensure the security of the software being installed. The user is informed and given the option to stop or continue the installation if no digital certificate is detected.
