I totally understand symmetric and asymmetric key encryption.
Struggling to grasp hybrid key encryption. Watched the CBT Nuggets video and reading Mike Meyer's book today.
Anyone have a good way of simplifying it for me??
Thanks in advance.

The great example is that how Wannacry ransomware uses hybrid key encryption.
Hybrid is basically mixing symmetric and asymmetric cryptosystems.
