WordScrambler2001


A (fairly simple) monoalphabetic substitution cipher

This cipher works by replacing every letter in a string with the corresponding letter in the key alphabet, adding a changing offset.

Use cases

  • no

Installation

  1. Contemplate your life choices
  2. Download the repository using git clone https://github.com/Syrapt0r/WordScrambler2001
  3. Open the project in your favourite IDE

Usage

There are two ways to use the program.

Standalone Mode:

  1. Compile and run the program.
  2. Provide the message you want to encrypt.
  3. Provide your key. If you leave this blank, a random key will be generated.
  4. Enter your shifting values. They determine the way the algorithm shifts the individual letters.
  5. Select a mode.
  6. Select if your output should be Base64 encoded.
  7. Select if you want to enable verbose logging

Command Line Mode:

Call the program using WordScrambler2001.exe <parameters>

Command Line Parameters:
Parameter Optional Parameter Meaning Optional
--encrypt -e Encryption Mode No
--decrypt -d Decryption Mode No
--message -m Message to en-/decrypt No
--key -k Cipher Key Yes
--initial-shift -i Initial Cipher Shift No
--shift-value -s Cipher Shift Value No
--base64 -b64 Whether Input/Output is in Base64 Yes
--verbose -v Activate verbose logging Yes

Roadmap

  • Add parameter mode
  • Add spaces / special characters
  • Add Base64 to parameter mode
  • Improve parameter mode overall
  • Improve algorithm safety
