What are the encryption methods?

4 of the most common encryption methods

  1. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Advanced Encryption Standard is a symmetric encryption algorithm that encrypts fixed blocks of data (of 128 bits) at a time.
  2. Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA)
  3. Triple DES (Data Encryption Standard)
  4. Twofish.

How do I remove audit logs?
