  • 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

Definition from Wikipedia:
Kryptering är att göra information svårläslig för alla som inte ska kunna läsa den

Example sentence(s):
  • Kryptering är en teknologi som utvecklades för att dölja information för obehöriga avlyssnare. Det är en teknologi som har haft högkonjunktur i krigssituationer, då man naturligtvis vill kunna kommunicera utan att fiendens styrkor kan läsa det som man kommunicerar. - Webway
