I believe the question is about the methodology rather than specific technology implementation. Most popular ways: challenge/response and public key encryption.

The answer should explain in detail the PKI mechanism with private/public key concepts.

I'm not sure what level of detail they are looking for here - is it simply encryption, use SSL, do they want to know at a high level how RSA works?
