SHA stands for secure hashing algorithm. SHA is a modified version of MD5 and used for hashing information and certificates. A hashing algorithm shortens the input information into a smaller form that cannot be learned by utilizing bitwise operations, modular additions, and compression functions.SHAs also help in revealing if an ...

DES stands for Data Encryption Standard. The Data Encryption Standards (DES) algorithm was invented by IBM in the early 1970s. It obtain the plaintext in 64-bit blocks and changes it into the ciphertext that need the 64-bit keys to encrypt the information. The algorithm need the similar key to encrypt ... Read More

There are various types of keys are as follows −Symmetric key −A symmetric key is one that can be used both to encrypt and decrypt information. This can define that to decrypt information, one should have the same key that was used to encrypt it.Symmetric encryption is generally more effective ... Read More
