    The Copiale cipher is an encrypted manuscript consisting of 75,000 handwritten characters filling 105 pages in a bound volume. [1] Undeciphered for more than 260 years, the document was decrypted in 2011 with computer assistance.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciphertext_stealing

    Decrypt the second-to-last ciphertext block using ECB mode. C n = C n || Tail (D n, B−M). Pad the ciphertext to the nearest multiple of the block size using the last B−M bits of block cipher decryption of the second-to-last ciphertext block. Swap the last two ciphertext blocks. Decrypt the (modified) ciphertext using the standard CBC mode.

    Another homophonic cipher was described by Stahl [2] [3] and was one of the first [citation needed] attempts to provide for computer security of data systems in computers through encryption. Stahl constructed the cipher in such a way that the number of homophones for a given character was in proportion to the frequency of the character, thus ...

    A block cipher enciphers input in blocks of plaintext as opposed to individual characters, the input form used by a stream cipher. The Data Encryption Standard (DES) and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) are block cipher designs that have been designated cryptography standards by the US government (though DES's designation was finally ...

  9. Known-plaintext attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Known-plaintext_attack

    Classical ciphers are typically vulnerable to known-plaintext attack. For example, a Caesar cipher can be solved using a single letter of corresponding plaintext and ciphertext to decrypt entirely. A general monoalphabetic substitution cipher needs several character pairs and some guessing if there are fewer than 26 distinct pairs.
