Cryptography is the study of hiding information using mathematical algorithms in such a way that the original information cannot be assertained from the resulting 'cyphercode' without knowledge of the specific 'key' required to undo the changes made by the algorithm.

The algorithms used in cryptography are related to math, being mathematically founded, and so, by extension, cryptography is related to math.
