Cryptography is the process of securing communication and information by converting plain text into cipher text using cryptographic algorithms and keys. There are two main types: symmetric key cryptography which uses a single private key for encryption and decryption and is faster but less secure, and asymmetric key cryptography which uses two different keys (public and private) and is more complex but more secure. The purpose of cryptography is to defend against hackers and securely transmit sensitive information such as financial transactions, intellectual property, and other private communications.

Cryptography in networks
- 1. By Kajal Chaudhari Roll No.: 30 Cryptography in networks.
- 2. • Cryptography derived its name from a Greek word called “Kryptos” which means “Hidden Secrets”. • Cryptography is a method of storing and transmitting data in a particular form so that only those for whom it is intended can read and process it. • The term is most often associated with scrambling plaintext (ordinary text) into cipher text (a process called encryption), then back again (known as decryption). What is cryptography?

- 5. Types of Cryptography (Secret key) (Public key)
- 6. Asymmetric key cryptography: (Public key) • Two different keys are used for encryption and decryption. • More secured, relatively complex
- 7. Symmetric key cryptography (private key) • Only one key is used for encryption and decryption • It is simple and faster • Less secured
- 8. Purpose of cryptography • Defending against external/internal hackers • Securing E-commerce • Securing bank accounts/electronic transfer • Securing intellectual property • Avoiding liability
