Cryptography is a term used in data communication that refers to protecting the private information shared between two parties. Network Security refers to securing and protecting the network and data for ensuring the confidentiality of data.

The three types of cryptography are:
Symmetric key cryptography
Asymmetric key cryptography
Hash Function
