CBC - Cipher Block Chaining - Security+

Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) is a block cipher mode of operation used in symmetric key encryption algorithms. It operates on fixed-size blocks of data and introduces a chaining mechanism to enhance security. In CBC mode, each block of plaintext is XORed with the previous ciphertext block before encryption, creating a dependency between blocks. For the Security+ exam, understanding Cipher Block Chaining is relevant in the context of symmetric key encryption, confidentiality, and the secure transmission of data.   **🔥 Join the Geekus Maximus Elite! 🔥** If this video saved your day (or just made it brighter), smash that **Like** button and **Subscribe**!
