Answer:
The correct answer to the given question is:
a. Encryption
Explanation:
Encryption is the process of converting information into secret codes that hide its true meaning. Encryption is the science of encrypting and decrypting information.
In the computer world, ciphertext represents encrypted data and plaintext means unencrypted data. An encryption algorithm often called a cipher, is a mathematical formula used to encode and decode a message.
Encryption is critical to protecting a wide range of information technology (IT):
- Message content is encrypted for privacy.
- authentication establishes the origin of the message.
- Integrity indicates that the content of the message has not changed since it was sent.
- The sender cannot claim that it did not send an encrypted message due to non-repudiation.
