Hi Gentlemen,

2. What's the difference between these terms: Encryption, Hashing, Packer, & Encoding?

I was wondering about the difference between VPN & Tunnel.

you need to be more specific so we can help you give you more information. Tunnel is a protocol which allow secure date transfer from one network to another network. in order to make the communication secure "encapsulation" process is use/employee by the private network (RFC 1918) prior to sending it to public network. On the other hand, VPN is based on the idea of tunnel. It involves establishing and maintaining a logical network connection. On this connection, packets constructed in a specific VPN protocol format are encapsulated within some other base or carrier protocol, then transmitted between VPN client and server, and finally de-encapsulated on the receiving side.

 

What's the difference between these terms: Encryption, Hashing, Packer, & Encoding

Encryption is the method by which information is converted into secret code that hides the information's true meaning.

Hashing is the transformation of a string of characters into a usually shorter fixed-length value or key that represents the original string. Hashing is used to index and retrieve items in a database because it is faster to find the item using the shorter hashed key than to find it using the original value.here
