By using a combination of both numbers and letters, the password becomes more secure and less susceptible to brute force attacks or dictionary attacks. This is because the combination of numbers and letters increases the number of possible combinations, making it more difficult for an attacker to guess the password.

    True or False?Encryption prevents illegal access. - ProProfs

    True or False?Encryption prevents illegal access.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

Encryption helps protect data during transmission or storage, but it does not address other aspects of security such as user authentication or physical security measures. Therefore, while encryption is an important security measure, it alone cannot prevent illegal access.
