  2. Vigenère cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigenère_cipher

    The distance between the repetitions of VHVS is 18. If it is assumed that the repeated segments represent the same plaintext segments, that implies that the key is 18, 9, 6, 3, 2, or 1 characters long. The distance between the repetitions of QUCE is 30 characters. That means that the key length could be 30, 15, 10, 6, 5, 3, 2, or 1 characters long.

  3. Gilbert Vernam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_Vernam

    Gilbert Sandford Vernam (April 3, 1890 – February 7, 1960) was a Worcester Polytechnic Institute 1914 graduate and AT&T Bell Labs engineer who, in 1917, invented an additive polyalphabetic stream cipher and later co-invented an automated one-time pad cipher.

  4. One-time pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-time_pad

    On July 22, 1919, U.S. Patent 1,310,719 was issued to Gilbert Vernam for the XOR operation used for the encryption of a one-time pad. [7] Derived from his Vernam cipher, the system was a cipher that combined a message with a key read from a punched tape. In its original form, Vernam's system was vulnerable because the key tape was a loop, which ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classifications_of_snow

    Snow accumulation on ground and in tree branches in Germany Snow blowing across a highway in Canada Spring snow on a mountain in France. Classifications of snow describe and categorize the attributes of snow-generating weather events, including the individual crystals both in the air and on the ground, and the deposited snow pack as it changes over time.

  6. Stream cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_cipher

    The operation of the keystream generator in A5/1, an LFSR-based stream cipher used to encrypt mobile phone conversations.. A stream cipher is a symmetric key cipher where plaintext digits are combined with a pseudorandom cipher digit stream ().

  7. Substitution cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_cipher

    In cryptography, a substitution cipher is a method of encrypting in which units of plaintext are replaced with the ciphertext, in a defined manner, with the help of a key; the "units" may be single letters (the most common), pairs of letters, triplets of letters, mixtures of the above, and so forth.

  8. What is graupel? How it is different from sleet or hail? - AOL

    Unlike hail or sleet, graupel is soft and can be crushed easily in your hand, and is sometimes called "soft hail." It is also usually smaller than hail, with a diameter of around 0.08-0.2 inches.

  9. Transposition cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_cipher

    The Rail Fence cipher is a form of transposition cipher that gets its name from the way in which it is encoded. In the rail fence cipher, the plaintext is written downward and diagonally on successive "rails" of an imaginary fence, then moves up when it gets to the bottom.
