Common Encryption Ciphers for Network Protection What are three common encryption ciphers used to protect network communications and what are the capabilities that they offer?
Question B
How does public key cryptography provide protection for network data and what are the major elements that enable it to provide this capability? Encryption is the process of converting a plaintext message into ciphertext which can be decoded back into the original message. An encryption algorithm along with a key is used in the encryption and decryption of data. There are several types of data encryptions which form the basis of network security.
