In cryptography, ciphertext (or cyphertext) is the result of encryption
performed on plaintext using an algorithm, called a cipher. Ciphertext is
also known as encrypted or encoded information because it contains a form of the
original plaintext that is unreadable by a human or computer without the proper
cipher to decrypt it. Decryption, the inverse of encryption, is the process of
turning ciphertext into readable plaintext. Ciphertext is not to be confused
with codetext because the latter is a result of a code, not a cipher.
