Private Key

Private Key is one of the components of cryptography. Private Key, as the name suggest, is used only by the key’s indicator thus ensuring secure delivery of information. Often paired with a public key, it is used for setting off algorithms for encryption and decryption.A private key is used to decrypt an encrypted message and transform it into a readable format. Private Key plays an important role in both symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. It is created as part of public key cryptography during asymmetric-key encryption and used to decrypt and transform a message to a readable format.
