What is data encryption?
Data encryption transforms data, called plaintext or cleartext, into a scrambled form called ciphertext that cannot be read by others. The rules for encryption, known as the encryption algorithm, determine how simple or complex the transformation process should be. The receiver then unscrambles the data by using a decryption key.
