What is encryption?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Encryption is the process of converting plaintext (original data) into a coded or unreadable format known as ciphertext. This ensures that if the data is intercepted or accessed by unauthorized individuals, they would not be able to understand the information without the appropriate decryption key. Encryption is used to protect the confidentiality and privacy of sensitive data during transmission or storage.
