What is the structural difference between a symmetric encryption algorithm and an asymmetric public-private key framework?
When securing a local file directory backup database or setting up an encrypted network transit stream when do security systems switch between AES and RSA schemas?

Symmetric encryption (like AES) utilizes a single identical secret key to both encrypt and decrypt data streams making processing speeds ultra-fast for large files. Asymmetric encryption (like RSA) utilizes a public key for encoding and a completely separate private key for decoding resolving key sharing vulnerabilities.
