- 3. Involves one key for both encryption and decryption
- 4. A system that requires at least two steps to unlock protected information; each step adds a new layer of security that must be broken to gain unauthorized access
- 7. Includes a program as an integral part of its function. Can be physical (e.g. self-driving car), non-physical computing software (e.g. picture editing software), or non-physical computing concepts (e.g., e-commerce).
- 11. Information about an individual that identifies, links, relates, or describes them

Down
- 1. A wireless access point that gives unauthorized access to secure networks
- 2. Protects a computing system against infection
- 5. Pairs a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption. The sender does not need the receiver’s private key to encrypt a message, but the receiver’s private key is required to decrypt the message
- 6. A process that reverses encryption, taking a secret message and reproducing the original plain text
- 8. Software intended to damage a computing system or to take partial control over its operation
- 9. The use of a program to record every keystroke made by a computer user in order to gain fraudulent access to passwords and other confidential information
- 10. A technique that attempts to trick a user into providing personal information. That personal information can then be used to access sensitive online resources, such as bank accounts and emails
