What is 128-bit encryption?

Encryption is a security measure to guard your data. 128-bit encryption simply refers to the size of the 'key' used to encrypt information. A longer key means the encryption is more "random" and someone attempting to decipher information will have to try more combinations to guess the key. Each extra bit in a key doubles the complexity of the key.
