👉 In the context of computer science, "gumshield" refers to a type of data structure or algorithm that is designed specifically for working with and protecting sensitive information. It is often used in applications where there are sensitive data to protect and ensure its confidentiality and integrity. Gumshields can be categorized into two main types: hash-based gumshields (which use hashing algorithms) and key-based gumshields (which rely on encryption keys). Hash-based gumshields use a cryptographic hash function
