  2. Playfair cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair_cipher

    The Playfair cipher or Playfair square or Wheatstone–Playfair cipher is a manual symmetric encryption technique and was the first literal digram substitution cipher. The scheme was invented in 1854 by Charles Wheatstone , but bears the name of Lord Playfair for promoting its use.

  3. Two-square cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-square_cipher

    The Two-square cipher, also called double Playfair, is a manual symmetric encryption technique. [1] 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 .

  4. Substitution cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_cipher

    In this cipher, a 5 x 5 grid is filled with the letters of a mixed alphabet (two letters, usually I and J, are combined). A digraphic substitution is then simulated by taking pairs of letters as two corners of a rectangle, and using the other two corners as the ciphertext (see the Playfair cipher main article for a diagram). Special rules ...

  5. Polygraphic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygraphic_substitution

    In 1854, Charles Wheatstone came up with the Playfair cipher, a keyword-based system that could be performed on paper in the field. This was followed up over the next fifty years with the closely related four-square and two-square ciphers, which are slightly more cumbersome but offer slightly better security.

  6. Ciphertext - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciphertext

    Polygraphic substitution cipher: the unit of substitution is a sequence of two or more letters rather than just one (e.g., Playfair cipher) Transposition cipher: the ciphertext is a permutation of the plaintext (e.g., rail fence cipher) Historical ciphers are not generally used as a standalone encryption technique because they are quite easy to ...

    New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was benched late in his team's 40-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills despite chasing a milestone 500th career touchdown pass in the contest.. The 41-year-old made ...

  8. Four-square cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-square_cipher

    The four-square cipher is a manual symmetric encryption technique. [1] It was invented by the French cryptographer Felix Delastelle . The technique encrypts pairs of letters ( digraphs ), and falls into a category of ciphers known as polygraphic substitution ciphers .
