Encryption 

An algorithm used to scramble data which makes it unreadable to everyone except the recipient. This is often used by e-commerce sites to secure credit card data. Secure sites use encryption.

The eDonkey p2p program is NOT protected with much encryption.

Encrypt into the future. Encrypt a message so that it will be decrypted only after a predetermined amount of time. It is an area of cryptography.

Timed-release encryption can be used for sealed-bid auctions, so that the bids will open at the end of the auction process.

encryptment thesis 

The theory popularized by time-travel researcher Nicholas Meyler, that information from the Future, frequently about disasters, is often embedded or encrypted subtly (see "steganography") into artworks like music, or literature, as possible warnings, to avert damage.

The FBI could have used the encryptment thesis to deduce the September 11 attacks before they happened, but, instead, obstructed justice.

Nah, I'll just use bit-shifting
Sounds like encraption to me

Rewrite the Encryptions 

South Park's hilarious send-up of bullshit fictional hacking in movies.

Kyle Broflowski can't log onto a message board, but is able to break through the access code by "rewriting the encryptions". He achieves this by typing furiously until the screen reads "Access Granted".

Kyle: Dammit, they've got an access code! I'll rewrite the encryptions!
(types furiously for 5 seconds)
Got it!
(Cartman and Stan look at him incredulously)
