| Encryption |
Information that can be read and
understood without using any special devices or measures is called
plaintext. Plaintext can be disguised in such a way as to hide its
substance and prevent others from understanding its true meaning.
The process used to accomplish this is called encryption.
When plaintext is encrypted, each letter or number in the word to be
encrypted is replaced with a different letter, number or printable
character resulting in a new string of characters that is not legible to
anyone. (For example, the word "encrypt" might be changed to
look like this: ¡Óx#p¦L.)
The encryption process is used to protect information from being read and
understood by those for whom it is not intended. For orders that require a
credit card, MilitaryShoppers.com will encrypt your credit card
information the moment you submit your order and will transmit your
information securely for order fulfillment.
