What is Cryptography?

Cryptography and Encryption Cryptography is the science of securing information and communications by transforming data into a coded format, ensuring that only authorized parties can access and understand it. At its core, cryptography uses mathematical algorithms and keys to convert plaintext (readable data) into ciphertext (an unreadable, encrypted form), a process known as encryption. Decryption…

An Introduction to Cryptographic Security Methods and Their Role in Securing Low Resource Computing Devices

Contributed by Joanne C. Kelleher What is the difference between private key and public key cryptography? What is the difference between symmetric and asymmetric cryptography? What is the difference between Diffie-Hellman (Elliptic Curve) and RSA asymmetric cryptography methods? Since SecureRF’s Algebraic Eraser technology offers a combination of symmetric (i.e. private key or secret key) and…
