What are2 examples of data encryption methods?
cryptography, encryption is the process of transforming
information (referred to as plaintext) using an algorithm (called a
cipher) to make it unreadable to anyone except those possessing
special knowledge, usually referred to as a key. The result of the
process is information (in cryptography, referred to as
ciphertext). The reverse process, i.e., to make the encrypted
information readable again, is referred to as decryption (i.e., to
make it unencrypted).
