Abstract - Cryptography is the basis of modern information security, combining symmetric and asymmetric algorithms to protect digital information. This article presents a comparison of the main algorithms in the two fields. Explore symmetry algorithms such as RC4, AES and DES for their performance, security, and versatility. In contrast, asymmetric algorithms such as RSA, ECC and ElGamal are analyzed for their management complexity, computational overhead, and vulnerability to cryptographic attacks. Understanding the unique characteristics of each algorithm allows practitioners to make informed decisions about choosing the encryption method that best suits their specific security needs. This misunderstanding is necessary to create resilient cryptographic systems and reduce vulnerabilities in digital systems. In addition, this research contributes to cryptographic knowledge by addressing new trends and current issues in the field. The insights gained from this research not only help support the use of strong encryption techniques but also lay the foundation for future innovations in digital security techniques. Finally, this article aims to deepen the understanding of the encryption process so that participants can investigate complex problems and create secure system knowledge. It aims to increase the effectiveness of digital systems against changing threats in the connected world through comprehensive analysis and to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.
