What a encryption means?

Encryption is a means of securing data by encoding it mathematically such that it can only be read, or decrypted, by those with the correct key or cipher. Digital encryption processes translate data using an algorithm that makes the original information unreadable except for authorized users.

How secure is encryption?

Generally, encryption is safe. Data transmitted and stored with encryption is safer than when left unencrypted. The average user uses encryption automatically many times a day when using a web browser or mobile app. Manual file encryption is safe with responsible handling of the decryption keys.
