What is one of the advantages of using both symmetric and asymmetric cryptography in SSL/TLS?
A.
Symmetric algorithms such as AES provide a failsafe when asymmetric methods fail.
B.
Asymmetric cryptography is computationally expensive in comparison. However, it is well-suited to securely negotiate keys for use with symmetric cryptography.
C.
Symmetric encryption allows the server to securely transmit the session keys out-of-band.
D.
Supporting both types of algorithms allows less-powerful devices such as mobile phones to use symmetric encryption instead.
