Encrypting using a keyword-based transposition cipher

thank u:)

you just saved my ass, couldn't figure out how the key (money) turns into the key (24315), THANK YOU

thnx i can go to the exam with a happy smile now

TQ...

pk how?

I wouldn't recommend padding, it makes the cipher MUCH less secure. For a key size of 7, the amount of possibilities drops from (1*2*3*4*4*3*2)*7=4032 to 6*7=42. (that is the more sophisticated approach, brute-force is 7!=5040 either way)

You should change keyword GERMAN to number from alphabet (A =0,..., Z= 25) so GERMAN = 6 4 17 12 0 13. If you label this number from the smallest, you will have 3 2 6 4 1 5.

@Nishat
PK is an example. It's dosen't matter what you put there. You can put any other letter.

thanks realy helpfull

DECRYPT IT

needo

I_A_Le-!rY[=Rs<]=8@G^]HHW(UippI6eWplA>DAr\N0l,FIT=]1Nss0&!JC<4n&E@vcPlw^3vqw=BA)-Qrg\LFsPX\%**2egl7E<d,?[

Can a keyword has the same letter in it? For example EXTREME that has 3 Es

Is transposing with a transposition cipher the same as row transposition?

Thanks! This is really helpful!

Thanx

Thanks a lot!!
