Frequently asked questions

How does the Caesar cipher work?

Each letter is shifted a fixed number of places along the alphabet. With a shift of 3, A becomes D and Z wraps round to C.

What is ROT13?

A Caesar shift of 13. Because the alphabet has 26 letters, applying ROT13 twice returns the original text.

Are these ciphers secure?

No — they are puzzles and teaching tools and can be broken in seconds. Use proper encryption such as AES for real secrets.
