Encapsulation in software systems refers to bundling data with the methods that operate on it and limiting direct access to the data. It allows developers to present a consistent interface independent of the system's internal implementation, hiding implementation details and maintaining state invariance. Encapsulation is not unique to object-oriented programming and can be found in other systems like abstract data types and libraries.
