The simplest encryption method used in cryptography is a key, which is a random set of characters to mathematically convert your text to some junk content, which cannot be understood unless decrypted.
The next method used is a secret key, in which a single key is used for both encryption and decryption. Either party uses the same key, leading to faster performance. The challenge is to send the secret key before starting the encryption.
