  2. Pigpen cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigpen_cipher

    The pigpen cipher uses graphical symbols assigned according to a key similar to the above diagram. [1]The pigpen cipher (alternatively referred to as the masonic cipher, Freemason's cipher, Rosicrucian cipher, Napoleon cipher, and tic-tac-toe cipher) [2] [3] is a geometric simple substitution cipher, which exchanges letters for symbols which are fragments of a grid.

  3. Cryptogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptogram

    A cryptogram is a type of puzzle that consists of a short piece of encrypted text. [1] Generally the cipher used to encrypt the text is simple enough that the cryptogram can be solved by hand. Substitution ciphers where each letter is replaced by a different letter, number, or symbol are frequently used.

  4. Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographically_secure...

    In the asymptotic setting, a family of deterministic polynomial time computable functions : {,} {,} for some polynomial p, is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG, or PRG in some references), if it stretches the length of its input (() > for any k), and if its output is computationally indistinguishable from true randomness, i.e. for any probabilistic polynomial time algorithm A, which ...

    The Zimmermann Telegram (as it was sent from Washington to Mexico) encrypted as ciphertext. KGB ciphertext found in a hollow nickel in Brooklyn in 1953. In cryptography, ciphertext or cyphertext is the result of encryption performed on plaintext using an algorithm, called a cipher. [1]

  8. Nihilist cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilist_cipher

    Because each symbol in both plaintext and key is used as a whole number without any fractionation, the basic Nihilist cipher is little more than a numerical version of the Vigenère cipher, with multiple-digit numbers being the enciphered symbols instead of letters.

  9. 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 ().
