[Hybrid cryptosystems](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_cryptosystem) combine the use of symmetric and asymmetric (public-key) cryptography to capitalize on the strengths of each, namely symmetric cryptography's speed and efficiency and public-key cryptography's mechanism for secure key exchange.

OpenPGP uses a hybrid cryptosystem for encryption. This approach involves generating unique shared secrets, known as "session keys," for each session. For detailed information on this topic, please refer to the chapters {ref}`encryption_chapter` and {ref}`decryption_chapter`. OpenPGP uses a hybrid cryptosystem for encryption.
