K
key
(1) A value used to identify a record in a database, derived by applying a fixed function to the
record. The key is often simply one of the fields (a column if the database is considered as a table
with records being rows). Alternatively, the key can be obtained by applying a function to one or
more of the fields.
(2) A value that must be fed into the algorithm used to decode an encrypted message in order to
reproduce the original plain text. Some encryption schemes use the same (secret) key to encrypt
and decrypt a message, but public key encryption uses a private (secret) key and a public key that
is known by all parties.
