DES
Data Encryption Standard. A commonly used standard method used for Encrypting Decrypting Data . Encryption is necessary as valuable sensitive information is often sent from one computer to another via a network that technically can be accessed by anybody. It provides a degree of security should the information fall into the wrong hands. DES was developed by the U.S National Institute of Standards Technology.

DES
Diethylstilbestrol (dye-ETH-ul-stil-BES-trol). A synthetic form of the hormone estrogen that was prescribed to pregnant women between about 1940and 1971 because it was thought to prevent miscarriages. DES may increase the risk of uterine, ovarian, or breast cancer in women who took it. DES also has been linked to an increased risk of clear cell carcinoma of the vagina or cervix in daughters exposed to DES before birth.
