Compression & Encryption
Compression
-
Compression can be LOSSY, LOSSLESS, RLE or SUPERCHANNEL
LOSSLESS
A form of compression that encodes digital files without losing detail.Files can also be restored to their uncompressed quality
-
RLE, SUPERCHANNEL
SUPERCHANNEL
A form of compression where special data is selected for a special reason. This data is separated from the rest, and the rest is thrown out.
RLE
simple form of data compressin which runs off data that sequences in which the same data value occurs consecutive times.

Example
[3,3][4,5][1,6][2,7],[4,9]

Encryption
Encryption is the process of encoding data or a message so that it cannot be understood by anyone other than its intended recipient.
In computer processing, encryption means that data can be stored and transmitted securely by the sending computer to the receiving computer.
-
EXAMPLES
1
Encrypting data stored on a laptop hard disk. This is important as a laptop might contain sensitive information and could be easily stolen.
If the hard disk is encrypted, the information will be unreadable unless the thief also has the key
2
When sending sensitive information, such as passwords or credit card details, over the internet.
When a website uses the HTTPS protocol the information being transferred is encrypted. This means that if the connection is intercepted, the information will be unreadable.
3
Encrypting a document, such as a spreadsheet, using software tools, before sending it to a colleague via the internet, for security purposes.
-
An encryption key is a piece of information - usually random characters - used by the software algorithm to encrypt data or a message into a form which is unreadable (encryption) and allow the data or message to be made readable again (decryption).
Encryption does not prevent someone from intercepting a message - instead it prevents them from being able to understand it.

CAESAR CIPHER
The Caesar cipher is one of the earliest know and simplest cipher. It is a type of substitution cipher in which each letter in the plaintext is "shifted" a certain number of placed down/up the alphabet.
