Encryption is the process by which the plain text is converted to cipher text. it is done at the sender's end before sending the message.

How is cryptography used?

Cryptography is basically the process of hiding information in order to protect the sensitive information, data or message from unknown attacks for any reasons. Cryptography actually consists of two terms encryption and decryption. The process in which message is ciphered or encrypted is known as encryption and the process in which message is deciphered at recipients end is known as decryption. And this whole process is known as cryptography. Public keys and private keys are used in the process of cryptography. Cryptography can be seen as symmetric and asymmetric. In symmetric cryptography same key is used for both encryption and decryption while in asymmetric different keys are used for both encryption and decryption. Today Cryptography is used in various fields like ATM, e-banking, IT security, Maths etc.


What are the difference between cryptography cryptanalysis?

The word cryptography means hidden writing, and it refers to the practice of using encryption to conceal text.. And cryptanalysis studies encryption and encrypted messages, hoping to find the hidden meanings.


How can you do secret writing?

The combination of a public key and a private key is known as a?

This is known as RSA encryption. Encryption involving a public and private key combination is known as asynchronous cryptography, as opposed to synchronous cryptography. It is also known as public key cryptography. RSA is an algorithm that may be used (but there are others that can be used), in public key cryptography. (A key pair)


What is the definition of a computationally hard problem and how does it relate to the field of cryptography?

A computationally hard problem is a task that is difficult for a computer to solve quickly. In the field of cryptography, computationally hard problems are used to create secure encryption methods. By using algorithms that are difficult for computers to crack, cryptography ensures that sensitive information remains protected from unauthorized access.


What does the word symmetric encryption mean?

The term "symmetric encryption" refers to a form of computerized cryptography that uses a singular encryption key to guise an electronic message so that it can be sent in a secure manner.
