By using codes, the information security strategy of cryptography shields business data and communications from online threats. Security professionals describe it as the art of concealing information to guard against unauthorised access to your data.
This technique employs mathematical principles and a series of calculations based on rules, known as algorithms, to alter messages in ways that are challenging to understand. It also refers to secure information and communication systems.
Then, these algorithms are applied to the creation of cryptographic keys, digital signing, data privacy protection, internet browsing, and private email and credit card transactions.
Confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation are only a few of the information security-related goals that are met by cryptography. In this article, we analyse what this tell us regarding cryptography.
