  • Enigma Cryptanalysis - Beginnings
    Enigma Cryptanalysis - Beginnings Gaurish Korpal∗ [email protected] July 15, 2015 Abstract Any message may be hidden in two basic ways. The methods of steganography conceal the very existence of the message, for example invisible inks and microdots. The methods of cryptography, on the other hand, do not conceal the presence of a secret message but render it unintelligible as ciphertext, to outsiders by various transformations of the plaintext. Breaking ciphers require ingenuity, creativity and a little math. In this article our focus will be on breaking Enigma ciphers. The skill involved in breaking ciphers is called cryptanalysis. Keywords. Enigma, cryptanalysis, cypher, Caesar, Vigen`ere,Rejewski, Zygalski, Bomba, Bombe 1 Cipher not Code A code is a mapping from some meaningful unit (word, sentence, phrase) into something else (usually a shorter group of symbols). A code requires a codebook, it is simply a list of these mappings. For example we could make up a code where the word Apple is written as 67, historical example of this is \Zimmermann Telegram Code" for more details refer [7]. Ciphers do not involve meaning. Instead they are mechanical operations (known as algorithms) which are performed on the individual or small chunks of letters. A code is stored as a mapping in a codebook, while ciphers transform individual symbols according to an algorithm. It was definitively stated in 1883 by the Dutch linguist Auguste Kerckhoffs von Nieuwenhof in his book La Cryptographie militaire: Kerckhoffs' Principle: The security of a cryptosystem must not depend on keeping secret the crypto-algorithm. The security depends only on keeping secret the key.

  • Q.1 What Is Cryptography? Ans. Cryptographic
    WWW.UPTUNOTES.COM Q.1 What is cryptography? Ans. Cryptographic systems are generally classified along 3 independent dimensions: Type of operations used for transforming plain text to cipher text All the encryption algorithms are based on two general principles: substitution, in which each element in the plaintext is mapped into another element, and transposition, in which elements in the plaintext are rearranged. The number of keys used are: 1. If the sender and receiver uses same key then it is said to be symmetric key (or) single key (or) conventional encryption. 2. If the sender and receiver use different keys then it is said to be public key encryption. Q.2 Explain the Cryptanalysis? Ans. The process of attempting to discover X or K or both is known as cryptanalysis. The strategy used by the cryptanalysis depends on the nature of the encryption scheme and the information available to the cryptanalyst. Q.3 Write down the various types of cryptanalytic attacks? Ans. There are various types of cryptanalytic attacks based on the amount of information known to the cryptanalyst. 1. Cipher Text Only – A copy of cipher text alone is known to the cryptanalyst. 2. Known Plaintext – The cryptanalyst has a copy of the cipher text and the corresponding plaintext. 3. Chosen Plaintext – The cryptanalysts gains temporary access to the encryption machine. They cannot open it to find the key, however; they can encrypt a large number of suitably chosen plaintexts and try to use the resulting cipher texts to deduce the key. 4. Chosen Cipher Text – The cryptanalyst obtains temporary access to the decryption machine, uses it to decrypt several string of symbols, and tries to use the results to deduce the key.

  • Rail Fence Cipher Columnar Transposition
    Mathematics 124 (Winter 2009) Transposition Ciphers A transposition cipher is one in which plaintext symbols are rearranged (i.e., transposed or permuted) to produce ciphertext. The method of transposition may be either mathematical or typographical in nature. Rail Fence Cipher Example: We encipher NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS by first writing it on two lines in a zig-zag pattern (or rail fence). The ciphertext is produced by transcribing the first row followed by the second row. NTIGSSTEM OHNIAISES Ciphertext: NTIGS STEMO HNIAI SES. To decrypt, we write half the letters on one line, half on the second. (Note that if there are an odd number of letters, we include the “middle” letter on the top line.) Example: Decipher MKHSE LWYAE ATSOL. Solution: Since there are 15 letters, we write 8 on the top line and 7 on the bottom line so that MKHSELWY AEATSOL Plaintext: MAKE HASTE SLOWLY. Columnar Transposition The number of columns is the key information. To encipher: Plaintext is written horizontally in k columns, and is then transcribed vertically column- by-column, To decipher: Suppose that the length of the ciphertext is n and the key is k. Then the letters will fill n DIV k full rows, and there will be one partial row at the end with n MOD k letters. Transcribing row-by-row will then yield the plaintext. Example: Encrypt NOTHING IN THE WORLD IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN SINCERE IGNORANCE AND CONSCIENTIOUS STUPIDITY with a key of k = 9 columns. Solution: We write the plaintext horizontally in 9 columns as follows: NOTHINGIN THEWORLDI SMOREDANG EROUSTHAN SINCEREIG NORANCEAN DCONSCIEN TIOUSSTUP IDITY The cipher text is therefore: NTSES NDTIO HMRIO CIDTE OONRO OIHWR UCANU TIOES ENSSY NRDTR CCSGL AHEEI TIDNA IAEUN IGNGN NP.

  • Grade 6 Math Circles Cryptography Introduction to Cryptography
    Faculty of Mathematics Centre for Education in Waterloo, Ontario N2L 3G1 Mathematics and Computing Grade 6 Math Circles October 4 & 5, 2016 Cryptography Introduction to Cryptography Cryptography is the study of hidden writing or reading and writing secret messages or codes. The word cryptography comes from the Greek word kryptos (κρυτ&) meaning hid- den and graphein (γραφω) meaning writing. Before we get any further, let's learn some terminology: Plaintext: The original message or information the sender wants to encode or hide Encryption: The process of encrypting plaintext such that only authorized parties, such as the sender and receiver, can read it Ciphertext: The encrypted message of the plaintext that was encrypted using a cipher (the method of performing encryption) Decryption: The process of decoding ciphertext back into its original plaintext Hello World Khoor Zruog Hello Zruog Khoor Khoor Zruog World 1. Person A encrypts plaintext 2. Person B receives ciphertext 3. Person B decrypts ciphertext back into ciphertext into plaintext 1 Rail Fence Cipher Let's warm up with an easy cipher. With the rail fence cipher, we will be transposing, or changing the position of the letters in a message. To transpose a message, we need a key number and we will need to write each letter of the message up and down the rail fence. Here is an example of how the cipher works: Suppose the message is TURTLES ARE SLOW and our key number is 3. Now imagine a rail fence with 3 rails. By reading off the rows of the rail fence, the resulting ciphertext is TLRO UTEAELW RSS.

    e-PGPathshala Subject : Computer Science Paper: Cryptography and Network Security Module: Transposition Cipher and Cryptanalysis Module No: CS/CNS/4 Quadrant 1 – e-text Cryptography and Network Security Module 4- Transposition Cipher and Cryptanalysis Learning Objectives ➢ To know the substitution cipher in classical cryptography ➢ To learn about the mono alphabetic substitution cipher ➢ To learn about the poly alphabetic substitution cipher ➢ Cryptanalysis of Substitution cipher 4.1 Introduction Cryptanalysis is the study of analyzing information systems in order to study the hidden aspects of the systems. Cryptanalysis is used to breach cryptographic security systems and gain access to the contents of encrypted messages, even if the cryptographic key is unknown. In addition to mathematical analysis of cryptographic algorithms, cryptanalysis includes the study of side-channel attacks that do not target weaknesses in the cryptographic algorithms themselves, but instead exploit weaknesses in their implementation. 4.2 Transposition Ciphers ➢ In transposition ciphers, we transpose (scramble) the plaintext letters Transposition (permutation) means rearranging the order of appearance of the elements of the plaintext. In other words cipher text constitutes permutation of plain text. In general transposition depends on the length of the text and it is aperiodic. – The scrambled text is the ciphertext – The transposition is the key ➢ Corresponds to Shannon’s principle of diffusion( property that spreads statistic properties of text all over the text preventing statistic analysis) – This idea is widely used in modern ciphers 4.3 Scytale ➢ One of the oldest cryptography tools was a Spartan scytale , circa 500 BC. ➢ Sender and recipient each had a rod of exactly the same radius.

  • 2. Classic Cryptography Methods 2.1. Spartan Scytale. One of the Oldest Known Examples Is the Spartan Scytale (Scytale /Skɪtəl
    2. Classic Cryptography Methods 2.1. Spartan scytale. One of the oldest known examples is the Spartan scytale (scytale /skɪtəli/, rhymes with Italy, a baton). From indirect evidence, the scytale was first mentioned by the Greek poet Archilochus who lived in the 7th century B.C. (over 2500 years ago). The ancient Greeks, and the Spartans in particular, are said to have used this cipher to communicate during military campaigns.Sender and recipient each had a cylinder (called a scytale) of exactly the same radius. The sender wound a narrow ribbon of parchment around his cylinder, then wrote on it lengthwise. After the ribbon is unwound, the writing could be read only by a person who had a cylinder of exactly the same circumference. The following table illustrate the idea. Imagine that each column wraps around the dowel one time, that is that the bottom of one column is followed by the top of the next column. Original message: Kill king tomorrow midnight Wrapped message: k i l l k i n g t o m o r r o w m i d n i g h t Encoded message: ktm ioi lmd lon kri irg noh gwt The key parameter in using the scytale encryption is the number of letters that can be recorded on one wrap ribbon around the dowel. Above the maximum was 3, since there are 3 rows in the wrapped meassage. The last row was padded with blank spaces before the message was encoded. We'll call this the wrap parameter. If you don't know the wrap parameter you cannot decode a message.
