  3. Public-key encryption uses two different keys, one for encryption and
    4. 

  4. one for decryption.  The encryption key can be made public, and the
    5. 

  5. decryption key is kept private.  Many public-key algorithms can also
    6. 

  6. be used to sign messages, and some can *only* be used for signatures.
