Encryption
Encryption technology ensures that messages
cannot be intercepted or read by anyone
other than the authorized recipient. Encryption
is usually deployed to protect data that
is transported over a public network and
uses advanced mathematical algorithms to
“scramble” messages and their
attachments. Several types of encryption
algorithms exist, but some are more secure
than others. Encryption provides the security
necessary to sustain the increasingly popular
VPN technology. VPNs are private connections,
or tunnels, over public networks such as
the Internet. They are deployed to connect
telecommuters, mobile workers, branch offices,
and business partners to corporate networks
or each other. All VPN hardware and software
devices support advanced encryption technology
to provide the utmost protection for the
data that they transport.
