# About PEP
PEP is an acronym for "Polymorphic Encryption and Pseudonymization". Functionally, PEP is software for the storage and retrieval of tabular data. PEP's storage consists of a single table. This rather limited [data structure](Data-structure) is offset by some features that run-of-the-mill database systems do not normally provide:
- PEP [encrypts](#encryption) data both [at rest](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_at_rest#Encryption) and in transit, effectively providing [end-to-end encryption](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption) between the data's uploader(s) and downloader(s).
