Your Cipher – Clwk 9/6/2018 – Cryptography

Due 09/11, 6:45 PM

Instructions

‘3. Design your own cipher and a device to easily encrypt and decrypt messages.

Describe your cipher. Draw a diagram for your device. Build your device. Type here decryption instructions.

    1. Friend’s Cipher – Cryptography

Find a classmate and exchange ciphers, instructions and encrypted message. After you checked with your classmate that you were able to decrypt the message, comment on the following: Efficiency of the cipher Quality of the instructions

NOTE: If the instructions were not clear or you couldn’t follow them, help your classmate make the right changes. Include the name of your classmate.

    1. Brute Force – Cryptography

If you didn’t have a key to decipher an encrypted message, how would write a program to decrypt it?

Write the pseudocode for you decrypting program using brute force.

Submit the instructions for your encryption device in the corresponding post. Include your name in the instructions.

Print your instructions and attach it to your device. I will “glue/attach” it to a poster. Please hand everything with your name on it.
