Symmetric cryptography is a type of encryption where the same key is used for both encrypting and decrypting data. This means that both the sender and recipient must have access to the same key in order to securely communicate. Symmetric cryptography is often used for securing sensitive information and data transfer, as it is efficient and provides a high level of security when implemented properly. Examples of symmetric encryption algorithms include AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and DES (Data Encryption Standard).
