About this video
Welcome back.
In this video you will learn the basic concepts of block cipher and stream cipher. The explanation is made easy and understandable with a simple demonstration.
Block cipher uses confusion and diffusion for the encryption process, while stream cipher uses only confusion. Hence, for better comprehension of the block cipher and stream cipher, I recommend you to watch my previous video on confusion and diffusion.
The link of the video on confusion and diffusion is given below
