Encryption has become a major part of the implementation of many products, but how many of us really understand what is going on behind the scenes. During your implementation, do you really know what an initialization vector does? What is the difference betwen AES-CBC and AES-CFB, and when should you use one over the other? How do you store the decryption key to prevent the same code leaking both the data and the key?

In this breakout section we will talk through some of the history of encryption, the different types of encryption, its appropriate uses, and the key elements that we are required to include encryption in your products.
