Ecc
Elliptical curve cryptography
Faster and cheaper than RSA
Can have smaller keys than RSA
Diffie Hellman
DH
Key exchange protocol
Take a number add a common number then give that new number across the wire. The other person then can add their number to this number and boom we have the same key
A+B=C
send C
A+D=E
Send E
E+B=X
C+D=X
Aka E+B=X=C+D
