Vigenère Cipher

No comments

  • It uses the Matrix with rows and columns with the indices as alphabets in alphabetical order.
  • There is a Key which points to a particular alphabet .This key is used to generate Cipher Text from the Plain Text
  • From that key each word in the plain text is decoded such a way that the row alphabets corresponds to the plain text alphabets and matches to the Key word in the Column alphabets.
Drawbacks:
  • Text Frequency analysis can be used to recover the plain text from cipher text.
