It’s easy to explain how a key prin­ci­ple of cryp­tog­ra­phy works. Just watch this two-minute video.

I could look at a Wikipedia arti­cle to learn how dual-key cryp­tog­ra­phy keeps email mes­sages and web pages secure in tran­sit. But video often helps explain com­plex con­cepts quickly… and this exam­ple has a nice soundtrack!

Thanks to Boing­Bo­ing for the link!
