Encryption:
Encryption is the process of transforming information in plain text using a cipher, or algorithm, to make it unreadable to everyone other than the person who has the key. There are two types of keys; symmetric and asymmetric. When the same value is used to encrypt and decrypt, then it is known as a symmetric key. An asymmetric key has two parts: one is a private key and the other is a public key. The private key is used to encrypt the data and the public key is used to decrypt the data.
