With asymmetric encryption you have a key pair with 2 keys a "Private Key" and a "Public Key" and you can give everyone your public key and when you encrypt something with someones "Public Key" the only way to decrypt the data is with that persons "Private Key" and the password the private key is encrypted with (technically it is possible to create a "Private Key" that isn't encrypted with a password then all you need is the "Private Key" to decrypt the data) | With asymmetric encryption you have a key pair with 2 keys a "Private Key" and a "Public Key" and you can give everyone your public key and when you encrypt something with someones "Public Key" the only way to decrypt the data is with that persons "Private Key" and the password the private key is encrypted with (technically it is possible to create a "Private Key" that isn't encrypted with a password then all you need is the "Private Key" to decrypt the data) | ||
:I'm with LukeKendall. Full Disk Encryption, or OS-level stuff like TrueCrypt, BitLocker and FileVault are the solution to this issue; no need to try and re-solve this problem. But I'm going to add some of the info from http://www.blogsdna.com/4318/how-to-get-back-firefox-35-session-restore-page.htm and on sessionstore.js, which I think is key. --[[User:MrElvey|MrElvey]] 04:47, 11 June 2010 (UTC) | :I'm with LukeKendall.
