Cryptanalysis — Cryptanalysis studies cryptographic systems to identify weaknesses and recover protected information without the intended secret. Researchers examine mathematical properties, implementation behavior, and available data. The work helps evaluate whether a cryptographic design provides its claimed protection. – Cryptography

Cryptanalysis — Cryptanalysis studies methods for defeating or assessing cryptographic protections without relying on the intended authorized access. It can examine mathematical weaknesses, implementation flaws, or patterns in encrypted information. Researchers use it to evaluate security, while attackers can use it to recover protected information.
