Description: Cryptography is a very interesting science of information security. The word Cryptography is derived from Greek kryptos, meaning hidden. Cryptography is not alone word or one word for all related information security science. Words like cryptanalysis, cipher and cryptology are always included in this science. Cryptography includes techniques such as microdots, merging words with images, and other ways to hide information in storage or transit. However, in today's computer-centric world, cryptography is most often associated with scrambling plaintext (ordinary text, sometimes referred to as clear text) into cipher text (unreadable text obtained after a process called encryption), then back again (known as decryption). Individuals who practice this field are known as cryptographers.
