digital signature standard
Computer science; Cryptography
Digital Signature Standard (DSS) is the digital signature algorithm (DSA) developed by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) to generate a digital signature for the ...
cryptographic message syntax
Computer science; Cryptography
Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) is a standard for protecting messages cryptographically. CMS is architected around certificate based key management and symmetric cryptography.
elliptic curve cryptography
Computer science; Cryptography
Elliptical curve cryptography (ECC) is a public key encryption technique based on elliptic curve theory that can be used to create faster, smaller, and more efficient ...
rsa
Computer science; Cryptography
RSA is an Internet encryption and authentication system that uses an algorithm developed in 1977 by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman. The RSA algorithm is the most ...
decryption
Computer science; Cryptography
Decryption is the process of converting encrypted data back into its original form, so it can be understood.
advanced encryption standard
Computer science; Cryptography
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is an encryption algorithm for securing sensitive but unclassified material by U.S. Government agencies and, as a likely consequence, may ...
block cipher
Computer science; Cryptography
A block cipher is a method of encrypting text (to produce ciphertext) in which a cryptographic key and algorithm are applied to a block of data (for example, 64 contiguous bits) ...
