As discussed above, however, although the Caesar cipher provides a great introduction to cryptography, in the computer age it is no longer a secure way to send encrypted communications electronically.

Caesar Ciphers are very simple methods of encryption because the work by shifting the alphabet over a few characters and matching up the letters (see the picture above)—in fact, if you've ever ...

Secret code or foreign language? For machines, it might not matter. Without any prior knowledge, artificial intelligence algorithms have cracked two classic forms of encryption: the Caesar cipher ...

Bernard claims Lukas uses a Ceaser shift cipher to decode the meaning of Salvador Quinn's cryptic message, making it hard not to wonder what it means.

Some ciphers have simple keys, others, complex ones. The key for a cipher used by Augustus Caesar, some 2,000 years ago, was simple enough: The receiver just had to shift the alphabet one position.
