Type a message in the top box, then click and turn the wheel to encrypt it.

A cipher should prevent an attacker, who has a copy of the cipher text but does not know the key, from discovering the contents of the message. Since we only have 26 choices for the key, someone can …

The Caesar Cipher, used by Julius Caesar around 58 BC, is a substitution cipher that shifts letters in a message to make it unreadable if intercepted. To decrypt, the receiver reverses the shift.

The Caesar Cipher is one of the simplest symmetric encryption techniques, and of course, one of the easiest to crack. Since then, cryptologists have invented many more symmetric encryption …

I was expecting the reason to be that AND and OR ciphers cannot be decrypted in many cases. As an example, if 101 is our message and 110 is our key, then the XOR-ciphertext would be 011.

1. Design a custom cipher that uses a key to transform messages into an unrecognizable form. 2. Implement your encryption routine in `custom_cipher.py`. 3. Reverse the transformations to …

One of the earliest encryption techniques is the Caesar Cipher, invented by Julius Caesar more than two thousand years ago to communicate messages to his allies. The Caesar Cipher is a great …

Learn about data encryption techniques through an example where Alice and Bob use secret codes (ciphers) to communicate privately. We'll learn about how encryption (locking messages) and …
