In the Vigenere cipher, unlike in Ceasar cipher, the displacement involved for each character is different. The sequence of displacement is decided by a keyword, which is known to both the ...

Secret code or foreign language? For machines, it might not matter. Without any prior knowledge, artificial intelligence algorithms have cracked two classic forms of encryption: the Caesar cipher ...

In 1868, the mathematician Charles Dodgson (better known as Lewis Carroll) proclaimed that an encryption scheme called the Vigenère cipher was “unbreakable.” He had no proof, but he had compelling ...

Cipher-cracking AI isn't just for decoding encrypted data—new research shows it can make quick work out of translating human language. A team of researchers from the University of Toronto and ...
