This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 159.148.223.225 (talk) at 15:06, 11 May 2007 (symetric key algorithm not for authentication???). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Re: Statement "The symmetric-key algorithms can't be used for authentication or non-repudiation purposes." Isn't authentication possible, using a KDC?

Re: authentication is possible, but you need a trusted channel first.. which involves asymmetric cryto... Sounds weird anyway.
