What is triple-DES ?..

Answer / Aneer Yadav

Triple-DES, also known as 3DES or Triple Data Encryption Algorithm (TDEA), is an extension of the Data Encryption Standard (DES) that uses three iterations of DES with different keys. It provides enhanced security over single-DES by increasing the key size and making brute force attacks more difficult.
