Solutions

S1. Ans.(a)

Encryption is the translation of data into a secret code. Encryption is the most effective way to achieve data security. To read an encrypted file, you must have access to a secret key or password that enables you to decrypt it. Unencrypted data is called plain text, encrypted data is referred to as cipher text. Scrambling is a technique to achieve encryption of data.

S2. Ans.(b)
