<p>Security is also far more than confidentiality provided encryption.
It is also about integrity - is this the comment I genuinely added, or has it been modified by someone?
It is also about authenticity - is the comment really from the claimed author?
It is also about availability - how do the provider of the blog prevent a DDOS attack stopping you from reading their blog.
There three example are all in the domain of security, but little to do with encryption.</p>
