Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) was the first serious effort to secure Internet mail. The Internet Resources Task Force (IRTF) Privacy and Security Research Group (PSRG) did the initial design. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) PEM Working Group continued development for three years, resulting in a four- part Proposed Internet Standard published in early 1993 [64] [56] [5] [55].

Encryption is the process of protecting data by using an algorithm to scramble it. The data is unintelligible, undetectable, unreadable and irretrievable unless a key is used to reverse the encryption, or decrypt, the data. Encryption is used all the time, often without you even realising it. Whenever you buy something online and make a transaction, all your details are heavily encrypted until they reach the other end, making sure that no third party could be listening in.
