Encryption Techniques

Encryption is a key component of data security. Here are some common encryption techniques:

  • Symmetric Encryption: Uses a single key for both encryption and decryption.
  • Asymmetric Encryption: Uses a pair of keys, one for encryption and one for decryption.
  • Hybrid Encryption: Combines symmetric and asymmetric encryption to enhance security.
