Explanation

Cryptanalysis is the science and practice of analyzing information systems to discover hidden aspects of the system, specifically studying methods for breaking encryption algorithms and ciphers. It is the counterpart to cryptography, which focuses on creating secure communication methods. Cryptogram refers to the encrypted text itself, steganography involves hiding messages within other content, and 'crptology' appears to be a typo.
