Selected Answer: D
The Diffie-Hellman protocol is specifically designed for securely exchanging cryptographic keys over an unsecured communication channel. It allows two parties to jointly establish a shared secret (the symmetric key) without exposing it to potential eavesdroppers, even if the communication is intercepted. Once the symmetric key is securely exchanged, it can be used to encrypt and decrypt sensitive data.
