Pigpen Cipher Explained (and Broken) – The Most Famous Cipher of the Freemasons
#cryptology, #cryptography, #cryptanalysis
In this video, I explain how you can create a pigpen cipher and how to encrypt and decrypt text with the pigpen cipher.
First, I give a short introduction to the pigpen cipher. Then, I show how the cipher is constructed. After that, I present the keyspace size of the cipher in a short cryptanalysis part. Finally, we have a look at an original pigpen ciphertext presented on Klaus Schmeh's Blog. First, I create a transcription of it. Then, I cryptanalyze and decrypt it using CrypTool 2.
The used pigpen font for the example encryption can be downloaded here: https://fontmeme.com/schriftarten/pigpen-cipher-schriftart/
The (German) blog article of Klaus Schmeh with the pictures of the pigpen postcard is here: https://scienceblogs.de/klausis-krypto-kolumne/drei-verschluesselte-postkarten-aus-england/
