OSI Model (Open Systems Interconnection) is a conceptual framework used to describe the functions of a networking system
Dear Musanganya Reonald,
Here below is some info that you may find useful.
To provide confidentiality, the cryptographic algorithm and mode of operation needs to be designed and implemented in such a way that an unauthorized party will be unable to determine the keys that have been associated with the encryption or have the ability to derive the information without using the correct keys.
Using asymmetric encryption to provide confidentiality, they agree on a secret cryptographic key, and then switch to symmetric encryption using that key, which is more performant and more suitable for handling large amounts of data.
The sixth layer of the OSI model, responsible for translation, encryption, authentication, and data compression.

Cryptographic encryption can provide confidentiality at several layers of the OSI model. For example, network layer protocols, such as the IPsec protocol suite, provide network layer confidentiality. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS), provide session layer confidentiality. MD5, Keyed MD5, and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 are examples of hash functions. They provide data integrity but not data confidentiality.
