ECRYPT

ECRYPT (the European Network of Excellence in Cryptology) is a collaborative organization that brings together researchers, industry experts, and policymakers to advance the science of secure communication. Its goal is to develop and promote cryptographic techniques—methods that protect data from unauthorized access—ensuring privacy and security in digital systems like banking, messaging, and online transactions. By sharing knowledge and setting standards, ECRYPT helps improve the reliability, efficiency, and trustworthiness of encryption technologies used worldwide.
