End-to-end encryption is intended to prevent data being read or secretly modified, other than by the true sender and recipient (s). The messages are encrypted by the sender but the third party does not have a means to decrypt them, and stores them encrypted. The recipients retrieve the encrypted data and decrypt it themselves.
Endpoint security. Endpoint security or endpoint protection is an approach to the protection of computer networks that are remotely bridged to client devices. The connection of endpoint devices such as laptops, tablets, mobile phones, and other wireless devices to corporate networks creates attack paths for security threats. [1]
Endpoint detection and response. (Redirected from Endpoint Detection and Response) Endpoint detection and response ( EDR ), also known as endpoint threat detection and response ( ETDR ), is a cybersecurity technology that continually monitors an "endpoint" (e.g. mobile phone, laptop, Internet-of-Things device) to mitigate malicious cyber threats.
Cryptoeconomics. Cryptoeconomics is an evolving economic paradigm for a cross-disciplinary approach to the study of digital economies and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. [1] [2] Cryptoeconomics integrates concepts and principles from traditional economics, cryptography, computer science, and game theory disciplines. [3]
Network access control is a computer networking solution that uses a set of protocols to define and implement a policy that describes how to secure access to network nodes by devices when they initially attempt to access the network. [3] NAC might integrate the automatic remediation process (fixing non-compliant nodes before allowing access ...
The zero trust security model, also known as zero trust architecture ( ZTA ), and perimeterless security describes an approach to the strategy, design and implementation of IT systems. The main concept behind the zero trust security model is "never trust, always verify", which means that users and devices should not be trusted by default, even ...
Any security system depends crucially on keeping some things secret. However, Kerckhoffs's principle points out that the things kept secret ought to be those least costly to change if inadvertently disclosed. For example, a cryptographic algorithm may be implemented by hardware and software that is widely distributed among users.
Symmetric-key algorithms [a] are algorithms for cryptography that use the same cryptographic keys for both the encryption of plaintext and the decryption of ciphertext. The keys may be identical, or there may be a simple transformation to go between the two keys. [1] The keys, in practice, represent a shared secret between two or more parties ...
