Satanizing it or raising its voice against cryptography is somehow a step backwards in technological advances and beyond the right to privacy and communication that all people have.

As we can see, a communication is encrypted when only the sender and the receiver are able to extract the information from the message; that is, the content of the message is completely hidden from a third party, and this activity has been of continuous use by humanity......

Among the oldest examples of occult writing are the hieroglyphics of Ancient Egypt, in the Bible (specifically in the book of Jeremiah)
In ancient Greece, in the Iliad of Homer, in ancient Rome, with the figure of Caesar, in the Middle Ages, we can say that there was a great revolution in cryptography whose origin is in the Arab world.
During the Renaissance, the Papal States were characterized by an intensive use of cryptography;
After the Renaissance, another key figure in the cryptography of this period was the German monk Johannes Trithemius. In the 16th century,
Later, in the "War of Independence" of the British colonies in America with the use of Thomas Jefferson's cipher wheel).
In the Crimean War, or during the First and Second World Wars, cryptography was used intensively.

As we can see, cryptography has played an important role in human history and its relevance has increased as technological evolution and man's need to communicate securely increases.
