Dave is increasing the security of his Web site by adding SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). Which type of encryption does SSL use?

A.
Asymmetric

B.
Symmetric

C.
Public Key

D.
Secret

Explanation:
The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol uses both asymmetric and symmetric key exchange. Use asymmetric keys for the SSL handshake. During the handshake, the master key, encrypted with the receiver public passes from the client to the server. The client and server make their own session keys using the master key. The
session keys encrypt and decrypt data for the remainder of the session. Symmetric key exchange occurs during the exchange of the cipher specification, or encryption level.
