Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Data encryption is a way of translating data from plaintext (unencrypted) to ciphertext (encrypted). Users can access encrypted data with an encryption key and decrypted data with a decryption key. Protecting your data. Types of data encryption: asymmetric vs symmetric.

Detailed explanation-2: -Encryption means “hidden.” Specifically, encryption is used to keep confidential information private by scrambling all the ones and zeros to make them appear like gibberish unless you have the key used to perform the scrambling. This key (a special code) is kept private so that you are the only one that has it.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is asymmetric encryption? Asymmetric encryption uses the notion of a key pair: a different key is used for the encryption and decryption process. One of the keys is typically known as the private key and the other is known as the public key.
