Introduction to Encryption and Cryptography
Let's talk about what Python has for encryption and cryptography.
We'll cover the following
Python doesn’t have very much in its standard library that deals with

3rd party packages: PyCrypto
and cryptography
. We will learn how to
encrypt and decrypt strings with both of these libraries.
