![The decryption primitive.](decryption.png)

Decryption is the reverse of {{glossary("encryption")}} and if the key stays secret, decryption without knowing the specific secret, decryption is mathematically hard to perform. How hard depends on the security of the cryptographic algorithm chosen and evolves with the progress of {{glossary("cryptanalysis")}}.

  • there was another error in this sentence, " decryption without knowing the specific secret"
  • I think the original 2-sentence form was fine, and the PR introduced a new error ("evolves" no longer made sense).

in the original context, evolves should means as cryptanalysis develops? so can we just say, the progress of that develpment(research)?
