End-to-end Encryption

End-to-end Encryption refers to a complete protection of data that flows between two points in a network, in which the data is encrypted when it leaves its source, leaving it encrypted while it passes through any intermediate computers (such as routers), and decrypting only when the data arrives at the intended destination.
