What does encryption mean?
Encryption works by encoding
the text of a message with a key - in essence
the bits and bytes are scrambled and difficult to read.
There are standard encryption types in the industry
called DES encryption. For our e-commerce products
and backup/restore products we will provide encryption
so that when a customer puts in a credit card on-line
it will be encrypted
as it travels through the network and the Internet.
