This algorithm was provided for completeness. IDEA International Data Encryption Algorithm was produced by Xuejia Lai and James Massey.

Encryption is essential for protecting data, with both symmetric and asymmetric methods offering unique advantages.

Encryption algorithms like RSA, AES and others are designed to make it extremely difficult to reverse-engineer the encrypted data without knowing the key used to encrypt it.

Researchers found that an encryption algorithm likely used by law enforcement and special forces can have weaknesses that ...
