👉 Encryption fluid, also known as stream cipher, is a type of encryption algorithm that generates a keystream which is then XORed with the plaintext to produce ciphertext. Unlike block ciphers, which encrypt data in fixed-size blocks, encryption fluid operates on a continuous stream of bits, making it highly efficient for encrypting data of any size. This process ensures that each bit of the plaintext is mixed with a unique bit from the keystream, providing strong confidentiality. The keystream is typically generated using a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), often based on a secret key, ensuring that even identical plaintexts encrypted with the same key produce different ciphertexts due to the inherent randomness. This fluid nature of encryption fluid makes it particularly suitable for real-time applications where speed and low latency are crucial.
