Software based overwriting that destroys all electronic data residing on a hard drive or other data residing on a hard drive or other digital media to ensure that no sensitive data is leaked when an asset is retired or reused

Data Encryption

Encoding messages or data that only authorized parties can read it (cryptography)

Public-Key Encryption

Most common forms of cryptography

Original message in readable form - Hello!

Encrypted message thats unreadable only by someone with "private key" keeping message secure (7yfhs!)

Encrypts original message (plaintext) by turning it into unreadable message (ciphertext) before transmission

Decrypts unreadable message (ciphertext) by turning it back to original message (plaintext) afte transmission
