WGU C839 Introduction To Cryptography - (EC-Council CES) Latest Version |2025/2026 |Graded A+ CrypTool - answer-Software which allows encryption of text using historic algorithms The Enigma Machine - answer-In World War II the Germans made use of an electro-mechanical rotor based cipher Known as The Enigma Machine. Allied cipher machines used in WWII included the British TypeX and the American SIGABA. The ADFGVX Cipher - answer-invented by Colonel Fritz Nebel in 1918. The key for this algorithm is a six-by-six square of letters, used to encode a 36-letter alphabet. The Playfair Cipher - answer-invented in 1854 by Charles Wheatstone. The Playfair cipher uses a five-by-five table containing a keyword or key phrase. Breaking the Vigenère Cipher - answer-In 1863, Friedrich Kasiski was the first person to publish a successful general attack on the Vigenère Cipher The Vigenère Cipher - answer-This is perhaps the most widely known multi-alphabet substitution cipher. invented in 1553 by Giovan Battista Bellaso. Uses a series of different Caesar ciphers based on the letters of a keyword. The Cipher Disk - answer-The cipher disk was invented by Leon Alberti in 1466. each time you turned the disk, you used a new cipher. It was literally a disk you turned to encrypt plaintext.Multi-Alphabet Substitution - answer-Use of multiple substitution alphabets. Example:Cipher Disk, Vigenere Cipher, Enigma Machine
