Pigpen cipher

     Pigpen cipher in cryptography



The Pigpen Cipher is another example of a substitution cipher, but rather than replacing each letter with another letter, the letters are replaced by symbols. 

Substitution cipher, any character of plain text from the given fixed set of characters is substituted by some other character from the same set depending on a key.

We assign each character by symbol:


From A to I

Look the table and see the position of A. A can be written as 

For Example:

  • E can be written as 
  • H can be written as 
The same procedure can be followed by J to R but we put an single dot along with that symbol.

For example 

  • K can be written as 
  • R can be written as 
Can we write a simple example using this procedure from A to R

a dog , a bird can be written as                    

Let see the words from S to Z


From S to v 
  • S can be written as  
  • U can be written as 
From W to Z we add single dot along with symbol
 
For example:
  •  X can be written as 
  • z can be written as 
can we convert simple sentence into cipher text using Pigpen cipher?
 
Actions speak louder
