Encrypted data refers to information that has been transformed or encoded using a cryptographic algorithm and a secret key to render it unreadable and protect it from unauthorized access or manipulation. Encryption is a crucial security measure that helps maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and privacy of sensitive data during storage and transmission, ensuring that only authorized parties with the correct decryption key can access the original information.
