FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is cryptography important?
A: Cryptography is crucial for securing sensitive information, ensuring data privacy, and protecting communication channels from unauthorized access. It underpins many aspects of modern security, from securing online transactions to protecting personal data.
Q: What are some standard cryptographic techniques?
A: Common cryptographic techniques include encryption (symmetric and asymmetric), hashing, digital signatures, and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). These techniques ensure confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation of data.
