 For example, even if an attacker knows that an intercepted ciphertext encrypts either the message "Attack" or the message "Retreat", a semantically secure encryption scheme will prevent the attacker from learning which of the two messages is encrypted.However, definitions such as semantic security are too strong to achieve with certain specialized encryption schemes.Entropic security is a weaker definition that can be used in the special case where an attacker has very little information about the messages being encrypted.
