crypter; encrypter : Ces termes prêtent à confusion. En effet, on pourrait comprendre qu'ils sont les antonymes du terme «décrypter», qui est utilisé lorsqu'on reconstitue un ensemble de données sans la clé appropriée. Ils ne peuvent toutefois pas jouer ce rôle parce qu'ils correspondraient alors à la transformation d'un ensemble de données en un cryptogramme sans clé appropriée, ce qui est impossible (la transformation d'un ensemble de données en un cryptogramme nécessite l'utilisation d'une clé appropriée). 3, record 2, French, - chiffrer

encriptar; cifrar : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "encriptar" es una palabra correcta para indicar, en el ámbito de la informática y las comunicaciones, la acción de preparar un archivo o mensaje para que solo pueda interpretarse si se dispone de su contraseña o clave. En criptografía se usa el verbo "cifrar" con un significado idéntico, aunque esta palabra ha adquirido en la lengua general un sentido más amplio que no siempre conlleva el propósito de ocultar la información, sino tan solo el de convertir un mensaje a una forma que permita su posterior descifrado, es decir, la restitución de su contenido original [...] 2, record 2, Spanish, - encriptar

El procedimiento de la «criptofonía»(criptografía + telefonía) o «sacrofonía», empleado en la actualidad a nivel internacional. [...] consiste en proteger las conversaciones telefónicas enmascarando las voces de los interlocutores. Un mecanismo de cifrar, el «modulador» o «mezclador», transforma las señales de origen convirtiéndolas en un sonido incoherente y confuso. Luego, otro aparato, el «demulador», se encarga de rectificarlas de salida, donde se halla el receptor autorizado. 5, record 11, Spanish, - criptofon%C3%ADa
