<p>You’ll notice the cipher is the same. It’s the same thing Eve has, but the message is different! It would have been nice to work out a message that could fit our conversion table nicely but remember that our attacker doesn’t know that either
and therefore would have to assume that on the conversion table, there are numbers that go up to 93 and so on. Often time codebooks use numbers like this as well.</p>
<p>Moving forward we’re going to talk about <abbrtitle="Pretty Good Privacy">PGP</abbr>, <abbrtitle="GNU Privacy Guard">GPG</abbr> and different concepts of encryption. This post was specifically made in order to prepare you for heading into
