Fundamentals of Secure Software - Encryption Overview

The video tutorial discusses encryption, focusing on symmetric and asymmetric types. Symmetric encryption uses the same key for both encryption and decryption, with AES being a popular algorithm. Asymmetric encryption involves a public and private key pair, with RSA as a common algorithm. The tutorial highlights the speed advantage of symmetric encryption and the security benefits of asymmetric encryption. A hybrid approach is often used, combining both types for optimal security and efficiency.
