- Encryption
- Scrambling data or messages with a cipher or code so that they are unreadable without a secret key. In some cases encryption algorithms are one directional, that is, they only encode and the resulting data cannot be unscrambled (e.g., access/verify codes).

Encryption: The process of transforming text into an unintelligible string of characters using a mathematical formula. Encryption allows computer users to share sensitive or confidential information over the Internet with a high degree of security. Encryption prevents hacking or illegal access by unauthorized persons. All EMR medical software systems should offer data encryption.
