For an international organisation that owns many branches around the world, combining the strengths of AES (symmetric) and RSA (asymmetric) encryption is able to ensure a secret key be distributed to the intended recipients without running a huge risk of it being carelessly or deliberately compromised somewhere along the way. Describe how AES and RSA work together.

First, argue for the best information security practice, whether a block cipher or stream cipher should be used to encrypt a video data file sent through the internet as part of a major, successful entertainment service. The entertainment company has a large market share, and ample resources. Secondly, argue for the most secure choice of which kind of cipher should be used for the authentication exchange between the user and the entertainment service web portal. The entertainment service is expensive to the customer, and users are wary of the misuse of their accounts. Consider the nature of the traffic and its pattern, and the nature of the keys to use.
