## Code Example
|
||||
|
||||
The [Eth-PM](https://github.com/status-im/js-waku/tree/main/examples/eth-pm) Web App example demonstrates both the use of symmetric and asymmetric encryption.
|
||||
|
||||
Asymmetric encryption is used for private messages so that only the intended recipient can read said messages.
|
||||
|
||||
Symmetric encryption is used for the public key messages.
|
||||
In this instance, the same key is used for all users: the Keccak-256 hash of the content topic (which results in 32 bytes array).
|
||||
While this does not add functional value, it does demonstrate the usage of symmetric encryption in a web app.
|
||||
