Despite the advances in encryption techniques and vastly improved computer capabilities, however, many of the fallacies and outdated understanding about encryption persist. Sometimes these myths are even being perpetuated in popular technology publications where some authors and editorial staff fail to do their research thoroughly. This paper examines the common myths that exist about data encryption and discusses the most recent techniques and changes in computing environments that have elevated encryption as a data security tool and enabled practical everyday use of this valuable technology. |
