Systematic literature review: comparison study of symmetric key and asymmetric key algorithm
Open accessAbstract
Cryptography is a science that studies how to keep data or messages safe when sent, from sender to recipient without interference from third parties. This paper presents a comparison of cryptographic algorithms of simetris keys and asymmetric keys. Cryptographic research related journals are collected and analyzed to find the correct comparison of cryptographic algorithms to implement. The results of this study, namely: symmetric and asymmetric keys have differences in the process of encryption and decryption. There are many cryptographic algorithms that can be applied to symmetric and asymmetric keys, but the selection and use of certain algorithms cannot be said to be forever the best because they depend on the circumstances encountered in developing the applied system.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
Symmetric encryption algorithms are low-cost and high-efficiency.
“Symmetric encryption algorithms are low-cost and high-efficiency.”
From Comparative performance analysis of hardware and software AES encryption implementation in WSN (2025) · cites this paper as [9]
The Figure 1 passage says symmetric algorithms operate faster than asymmetric algorithms, and Results and Discussion says they perform well on speed and power consumption. These support high efficiency, but the passages do not establish that symmetric algorithms are low-cost. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAsymmetric encryption algorithms are complex and take more execution time than symmetric algorithms, but they deliver a higher level of security.
“Asymmetric algorithms are complex and take more execution time, but they deliver a higher level of security.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
