  2. Cipher - Wikipedia

    Another example is given by whole word ciphers, which allow the user to replace an entire word with a symbol or character, much like the way written Japanese utilizes Kanji (meaning Chinese characters in Japanese) characters to supplement the native Japanese characters representing syllables. An example using English language with Kanji could ...

  3. Transparent decryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent_decryption

    Transparent decryption can make such accesses accountable, [2] giving citizens guarantees about how their private information is accessed. [3] [4] Data arising from vehicles and IoT devices may contain personal information about the vehicle or device owners and their activities. Nevertheless, the data is typically processed in order to provide ...

  4. Cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptography

    In colloquial use, the term "code" is often used to mean any method of encryption or concealment of meaning. However, in cryptography, code has a more specific meaning: the replacement of a unit of plaintext (i.e., a meaningful word or phrase) with a code word (for example, "wallaby" replaces "attack at dawn"). A cypher, in contrast, is a ...

  5. Encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encryption

    In cryptography, encryption (more specifically, encoding) is the process of transforming information in a way that, ideally, only authorized parties can decode. This process converts the original representation of the information, known as plaintext , into an alternative form known as ciphertext .

  6. Data masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_masking

    Encryption is often the most complex approach to solving the data masking problem. The encryption algorithm often requires that a "key" be applied to view the data based on user rights. This often sounds like the best solution, but in practice the key may then be given out to personnel without the proper rights to view the data.

  7. Ciphertext - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciphertext

    In cryptography, ciphertext or cyphertext is the result of encryption performed on plaintext using an algorithm, called a cipher. [1] Ciphertext is also known as encrypted or encoded information because it contains a form of the original plaintext that is unreadable by a human or computer without the proper cipher to decrypt it.

  8. Decipherment - Wikipedia

    Another case is when the text contains many small numbers, followed by a word, followed by a larger number; here, the word likely means "total" or "sum". After one has exhausted the information that can be inferentially derived from probable content, they must transition to the systematic application of statistical tools.

  9. Code (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_(cryptography)

    The word Arizona was not in the German codebook and had therefore to be split into phonetic syllables. Partially burnt pages from a World War II Soviet KGB two-part codebook. In cryptology, a code is a method used to encrypt a message that operates at the level of meaning; that is, words or phrases are converted into something else. A code ...
