Answers to Questions
How to encrypt using Bacon cipher
Encryption uses a substitution alphabet (no letter J or V) based on 2 letters (A and B)
| A | AAAAA | B | AAAAB |
|---|---|---|---|
| C | AAABA | D | AAABB |
| E | AABAA | F | AABAB |
| G | AABBA | H | AABBB |
| I=J | ABAAA | K | ABAAB |
| L | ABABA | M | ABABB |
| N | ABBAA | O | ABBAB |
| P | ABBBA | Q | ABBBB |
| R | BAAAA | S | BAAAB |
| T | BAABA | U=V | BAABB |
| W | BABAA | X | BABAB |
| Y | BABBA | Z | BABBB |
Example: DCODE is encrypted AAABB,AAABA,ABBAB,AAABB,AABAA
Another alphabet is sometimes preferred, it uses a unique code for each letter:
| A | AAAAA | B | AAAAB |
|---|---|---|---|
| C | AAABA | D | AAABB |
| E | AABAA | F | AABAB |
| G | AABBA | H | AABBB |
| I | ABAAA | J | ABAAB |
| K | ABABA | L | ABABB |
| M | ABBAA | N | ABBAB |
| O | ABBBA | P | ABBBB |
| Q | BAAAA | R | BAAAB |
| S | BAABA | T | BAABB |
| U | BABAA | V | BABAB |
| W | BABBA | X | BABBB |
| Y | BBAAA | Z | BBAAB |
How to decrypt Bacon cipher
Decryption is a substitution with the biliterian alphabet of Bacon.
Example: AAABB AAABA ABBAB AAABB AABAA is equivalent to DCODE.
How to recognize a Bacon ciphertext?
The ciphered message is a bilitary code (binary with 2 letters), and maybe spaces every 5 characters.
What are the variants of the Bacon cipher?
The letters A and B can be replaced by others characters, such as 0 and 1, to transform the message into binary format.
