1. Understand types of codes: Before deciphering a code, familiarize yourself with the various types of codes, like substitution ciphers, transposition ciphers, and polyalphabetic ciphers, so you can ...

The transposition cipher that you will implement is called Rail Fence Cipher. For the subsitution cipher we have chosen the Vigenere Cipher. Rail Fence Cipher: The rail fence cipher is also known as ...

Transposition Cipher was the most often used conventional cipher in the early days because it was resistant to frequency analysis. The purpose of this study is to provide another way of encrypting ...

Blog reader Mark Baldwin from England has a nice collection of encrypted postcards. A few of these have already been covered on this blog and, as usual, my readers solved them. Today, I’m going to ...
