Diethylstilbestrol, the earliest synthetic (man-made) form of a hormone in the estrogen class. Diethylstilbestrol was once widely prescribed to prevent miscarriages and premature births. Its usage was standard practice in the 1950s and 1960s. Millions of women received the drug. Girls whose mothers were given Diethylstilbestrol during pregnancy (&q [..]

Data Encryption Standard. DES is a popular single-key encryption system that uses a 56-bit key. Triple-DES uses the DES algorithm to encrypt a message three times, using three 56-bit keys. Because hardware is faster than software, it is considered a hardware solution to encryption because of the time necessary to encrypt and decrypt a message.
