RE: Rancangan Pengembangan Enkripsi & Dekripsi Data Menggunakan Metode Caesar Chiper (Encryption & Decryption Algorithms - Encrypt data a Plain text + Java Source Code)

in #programming7 years ago

It is worth noting that Caesar ciphers are vulnerable to a wide range of cryptanalysis methods, especially frequency analysis and statistical attacks, and should not be used for protection of sensitive data.

Instead, use something like RSA/AES for this.

Still, very nice work. Always good to see people learning about cryptography.
Perhaps for a next project you could consider writing software that implements some attacks on a Caesar cipher to demonstrate why they should not be used for protecting sensitive data?

I will consider the suggestions you have given. Maybe I will do the project you are referring to. Thank you for advising me, and this will be an input for me to develop knowledge in the field of cryptography @shadowey
