Cryptography is the stuff of spy novels and action comics. Kids once saved up Ovaltine labels and sent away for Captain Midnight's Secret Decoder Ring. Almost everyone has seen a television show or movie involving a nondescript suit-clad gentleman with a briefcase handcuffed to his wrist. The term "espionage" conjures images of James Bond, car chases, and flying bullets. In this case its not national security at stake, but your company's interests if your competitor got hold of it could cost you. You can use cryptography. You may find it lacks some of the drama of code phrases whispered in dark alleys, but the result is the same: information revealed only to those for whom it was intended.
