  2. Playfair cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair_cipher

    The two letters of the digram are considered opposite corners of a rectangle in the key table. To perform the substitution, apply the following 4 rules, in order, to each pair of letters in the plaintext: If both letters are the same (or only one letter is left), add an "X" after the first letter. Encrypt the new pair and continue.

  3. VIC cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIC_cipher

    The secret key for the encryption is the following: A short Phrase (e.g. the first line of a song, at least 20 letters long) A Date (written numerically, with no leading zeroes) A Personal Number (unique to agent, a 1 or 2 digit number) The encryption was also aided by the adversary not knowing a 5-digit Keygroup which was unique to each ...

  4. 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. To solve the puzzle, one must recover ...

  5. Keystream - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystream

    In cryptography, a keystream is a stream of random or pseudorandom characters that are combined with a plaintext message to produce an encrypted message (the ciphertext).. The "characters" in the keystream can be bits, bytes, numbers or actual characters like A-Z depending on the usage case.

  8. Two-square cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-square_cipher

    It was developed to ease the cumbersome nature of the large encryption/decryption matrix used in the four-square cipher while still being slightly stronger than the single-square Playfair cipher. The technique encrypts pairs of letters (digraphs), and thus falls into a category of ciphers known as polygraphic substitution ciphers.

  9. Beaufort cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaufort_cipher

    To encrypt, first choose the plaintext character from the top row of the tableau; call this column P. Secondly, travel down column P to the corresponding key letter K. Finally, move directly left from the key letter to the left edge of the tableau, the ciphertext encryption of plaintext P with key K will be there.
