Data Flow Diagram makes encryption visible. Under a centered heading, an SVG diagram traces the journey: a your tools node, a TLS labeled arrow into a filled Acme core annotated with in memory processing and logging, then an AES labeled arrow into a storage node drawn with a small padlock. A numbered three step list below expands each hop into two sentences. The chart scrolls horizontally on phones.
The diagram is one SVG of plain coordinates and text elements, so the labels, TLS 1.3, AES 256, and the node copy, edit as strings. The steps are an array matched to the three hops. Keeping the protocol names on the arrows rather than in a footnote is what makes the drawing feel like documentation.
Reach for this block when reviewers ask where the data goes and prose answers keep spawning follow ups. One diagram settles the topology question that security-pillars-grid answers only control by control. It belongs on trust centers and the security section of data heavy products, and it is the natural companion to residency-map-dots, which answers where geographically while this answers how.

One strong use is the encrypt in transit, process, encrypt at rest journey. Other flows:
Tip: label the arrows with protocols and the nodes with behavior, reviewers trust drawings that use their own vocabulary.
