In the field of , various techniques have been developed to ensure secure communication and protect sensitive information. One such technique is the Pigpen , also known as the Freemason's Cipher. This cipher uses a set to perform a , where each symbol corresponds to a specific letter in the alphabet.
The Pigpen Cipher is a type of , meaning that each letter in the is consistently replaced by a corresponding symbol. This allows for and using a specific and . The algorithm ensures that the symbols in the plaintext are substituted with the appropriate symbols from the , resulting in the .
To increase the security, more complex ciphers such as the are employed. This type of cipher uses multiple sets of symbols, allowing for different substitutions in each set. The of a polyalphabetic cipher determines the number of different possible substitutions, making it harder to decipher through techniques.
