Symmetric Encryption Simplified | Symmetric Encryption Explained and Live Demo | What is VerCrypt ?

Symmetric algorithms are algorithms in cryptography that uses the same cryptographic key for both encryption of plain-text and decryption of cipher-text. This can be a worth technology to store data securely. When you use symmetric encryption it provides Confidentiality. Also many technologies combines Hash function to provide integrity during encryption and decryption for validate the data. In Microsoft Systems they provide Bit locker and Bit locker as a symmetric encryption technologies. When it comes to open source technology there are number of tools that can offer symmetric encryption. There was a tool call TrueCrypt which provided encryption sometime ago but now its only available for already encrypted volume decryption as they stop further development. As a replacement you can use Veracrypt to encrypt your data. VeraCrypt even capable of encrypting system drive or external drive. More advanced users can even create hidden volume withing VeraCrypt volume. You can download VeraCrypt for your operating system using below link. https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Downloads.html Lets learn about Cyber Security and current emerging technologies in a simple way. We all can understand this, its only matter of building awareness. For more videos visit; http://blog.kushantha.com #Kushantha #Symmetric_Encryption #Hacking
