Intro to Encryption

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the getting-on-the-same-page dept.

An anonymous reader submitted a Techworld story which is a sort of encryption primer. The difference between codes & cyphers, and what all those acronyms like RSA and DES actually mean. This is good primer material for newbs, and a good refresher for fogeys.
