### A1Z26

Letters to their numerical value

```
8 15 12 1 3 1 18 1 3 15 12 1
```

### Affine Cipher Encode

Letter to num `(ax+b)%26` (*a* and *b* are the keys and *x* is the letter) and the result back to letter

```
krodfdudfrod
```

### SMS Code

**Multitap** [replaces a letter](https://www.dcode.fr/word-letter-change) by repeated digits defined by the corresponding key code on a mobile [phone keypad](https://www.dcode.fr/phone-keypad-cipher) (This mode is used when writing SMS).\
For example: 2=A, 22=B, 222=C, 3=D...\
You can identify this code because you will see\*\* several numbers repeated\*\*.

You can decode this code in: <https://www.dcode.fr/multitap-abc-cipher>

### Bacon Code

Substitude each letter for 4 As or Bs (or 1s and 0s)

```
00111 01101 01010 00000 00010 00000 10000 00000 00010 01101 01010 00000
AABBB ABBAB ABABA AAAAA AAABA AAAAA BAAAA AAAAA AAABA ABBAB ABABA AAAAA
```

### Runes

## Compression

**Raw Deflate** and **Raw Inflate** (you can find both in Cyberchef) can compress and decompress data without headers.

## Easy Crypto

### XOR - Autosolver

* <https://wiremask.eu/tools/xor-cracker/>

### Bifid

A keywork is needed

```

```

### Vigenere

A keywork is needed

```

* <https://www.dcode.fr/vigenere-cipher>
* <https://www.mygeocachingprofile.com/codebreaker.vigenerecipher.aspx>

## Strong Crypto

### Fernet

2 base64 strings (token and key)

```
Token:
gAAAAABWC9P7-9RsxTz_dwxh9-O2VUB7Ih8UCQL1_Zk4suxnkCvb26Ie4i8HSUJ4caHZuiNtjLl3qfmCv_fS3_VpjL7HxCz7_Q==

Key:
-s6eI5hyNh8liH7Gq0urPC-vzPgNnxauKvRO4g03oYI=
```

* <https://asecuritysite.com/encryption/ferdecode>

### Samir Secret Sharing

A secret is splitted in X parts and to recover it you need Y parts (*Y <=X*).

```
