| symmetric encryption | clave de cifrado simétrica (An encryption algorithm that requires the same secret key to be used for both encryption and decryption. Because of its speed, symmetric encryption is typically used when a message sender needs to encrypt large amounts of data) |
| symmetric key | clave simétrica (The cryptographic key used to both encrypt and decrypt protected content during publishing and consumption) |
| symmetric multiprocessing | multiproceso simétrico (A multiprocessing operation in which multiple processors share the same memory, which contains one copy of the operating system, one copy of any applications that are in use, and one copy of the data. Because the operating system divides the workload into tasks and assigns those tasks to whatever processors are available, SMP reduces transaction time) |
| symmetrical number pattern | patrón simétrico de números (A Sudoku pattern where the game-generated numbers are symmetrically placed on the board) |
