Introduction to Basic Cryptography: Hashing

In this essay, you will provide a real-world example of how cryptography/hashing can be used in order to secure data transmission across a network. Provide a scenario and explain how data is secured using the plaintext and ciphertext process that was discussed last week.. In addition to the video, choose one other scholarly reference to support your discussion.

Hash functions are indeed very helpful and can be applied in almost all information security
applications. A hash function is considered as a mathematical function that is used for converting
numerical input value to another compressed numerical value. Basically, it is critical to
understand that hash functions are or arbitrary length but the output is always of fixed.
Moreover, they are considered as simple processes but they are indeed awful difficulty in
reversing. The procedure used for hashing and the characteristics are difficult to reverse, and
they are usually described as egg scrabbling and trying to return it back to its previous situation.
