Using secret codes
Cryptographic describes things relating to cryptography—the practice of encoding information so only intended recipients can read it.
Cryptographic keys, algorithms, and protocols are the building blocks of digital security, protecting everything from bank transactions to private messages.
The files were protected with cryptographic encryption.
