Dogs in warfare have a long history starting in ancient times. From war dogs trained in combat to their use as scouts, sentries and trackers, their uses have been varied and some continue to exist in modern military usage.
Encryption is the coding or scrambling of information so that it can only be decoded and read by someone who has the correct decoding key. Encryption is used in secure Web sites as well as other mediums of data transfer. If a third party were to intercept the information you sent via an encrypted connection, they would not be able to read it.
A cryptographic algorithm (also called a encryption algorithm) is a A cryptographic algorithm is a mathematical function that computes a result from one or several input values. Overview Edit. Cryptographic algorithms specify the operations of encrypting, decrypting, authenticating, digitally signing, and verifying digital signatures or authentication codes. Algorithms are defined in a cryptographic system and a supporting CKM system for data protection, key protection, key generation, key establishment (exchange, agreement, distribution), key update, key destruction, etc. â 1  NIST Special Publication 800-152, at 127.
