 Cryptography cannot offer protection against the loss of data; it simply offers
 encryption methods to protect data at-rest and data in-traffic. At a high-level,

 encryption process is completed through the use of a mathematical function that
 utilizes one or more values called keys to encrypt or decrypt the data.
