Cryptography basis (if you find it boring go ahead)
First of all you have to understand how work encryption. Encryption algorithms are algorithms that are divided in Symmetric key and Public key. Symmetric key algorithms encrypt and decrypt with the same key(password), instead Public key uses two different keys for encrypt and decrypt.
The most used and strong encryption algorithms are:
- RSA(Public key) possible key lengths are 1024 bit, 2048 bit, 3072 bit and 4096 bi
