The process of transmitting scrambled data so that only authorized recipients can unscramble it. For instance, encryption is used to scramble credit card information when purchases are made over the Internet.

Example sentence(s):
  • Due to recent developments in software and hardware, some consumer-level encryption products are now so powerful that law enforcement officials say they can't crack them, even with massive supercomputers. Washington Post
  • If you just want to deter prying eyes a substitution cipher using multiple substitutions and several different substitutions schemes offers a reasonable level of encryption for virtually no computational effort. TechWorld
  • There are free on-the-fly disk encryption / on the fly file encryption (OTFE) software that transparently encrypts files on your disk drive (or partition), on demand encryption tools that allow you to encrypt single files for those one-off occasions when you need encryption public key encryption which is particularly useful for things like email (where the key you use to encrypt your data is different from the key used to decrypt the data), etc. thefreecountry.com

šifrování


Definition from wikipedia:
Šifrování je proces transformace informací pomocí algoritmu s šifrovacím klíčem s cílem znemožnit číst prostý text nepovolaným osobám. Číst ho mohou jen osoby s vhodným klíčem k dešifrování.

Example sentence(s):
  • Slovem šifra nebo šifrování budeme označovat kryptografický algoritmus, který převádí čitelnou zprávu neboli prostý text na její nečitelnou podobu neboli šifrový text. - Wikipedia  

Explanation:
Šifrování. Jedna z činností, stará jako samotné kulturní dějiny lidstva, byla vždy obestřena jakousi rouškou tajemství. Zašifrované zprávy rozhodovaly o dějinách celých států či kontinentů a svůj význam si šifrování zachovává dodnes.
