What algorithms encryption uses

Encryption algorithms use complex mathematical functions to scramble and transform plain text into unreadable ciphertext. The most common encryption algorithms used today include:

1. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES): A widely used symmetric-key encryption algorithm that operates on blocks of 128 bits, 192 bits, or 256 bits.
2. RSA: A widely used public-key encryption algorithm based on the difficulty of factoring large prime numbers.
3. Blowfish: A symmetric-key encryption algorithm that can operate on block sizes of up to 448 bits.
4. Triple DES: A symmetric-key encryption algorithm that applies the DES algorithm three times to each data block.
5. Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC): A public-key encryption algorithm that is based on the difficulty of solving the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem.
6. Twofish: A symmetric-key encryption algorithm that can operate on block sizes up to 256 bits.
7. ChaCha20: A symmetric-key encryption algorithm that can operate on block sizes up to 512 bits and is suitable for software implementations on mobile devices.
