The answer is "Data Encryption "scrambles" or encodes data so that.........".

Data encryption makes an interpretation of information into another shape, or code, so just individuals with access to a secret key (this key is known as decryption key) or password can read it. Scrambled information is regularly alluded to as ciphertext, while decoded information is called plaintext.
