[ /ˈkriptəˌbafəl/ ]
cybersecurity
noun: A security measure designed to confuse and baffle cybercriminals attempting to decrypt sensitive data by implementing complex encryption algorithms and intentionally introducing red herrings or decoy components. The goal of cryptobaffling is to make the decryption process incredibly challenging and time-consuming, rendering the stolen data practically worthless to attackers.
