{wiki=Category:Type_2_encryption_algorithms}
The term "Type 2 encryption algorithms" is not a standardized term in the field of cryptography. However, it may refer to a classification system that distinguishes between different types of encryption algorithms based on certain criteria. Generally, encryption algorithms are categorized into two main types: 1. **Symmetric Key Algorithms (Type 1)**: These algorithms use the same key for both encryption and decryption.
