Data stored encryption

Data stored encryption is a process that transforms information into a secure, unreadable format using a special code. When data is stored on a device or server, encryption ensures that only someone with the right key can convert it back into its original, readable form. This protects sensitive information from unauthorized access, even if someone gains physical access to the storage. Think of it as locking your data with a digital lock: only authorized users with the correct key can open and understand the contents, keeping your information private and secure.
