Frequently asked questions

What is the Caesar cipher?

The Caesar cipher is one of the oldest encryption techniques. It shifts each letter by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet. Julius Caesar used a shift of 3.

How do I decrypt Caesar cipher?

Use the negative shift (or 26 minus the shift). For example, to decrypt text encrypted with shift 5, use shift 21 (or shift -5).

Can Caesar cipher be broken?

Yes, easily. There are only 25 possible shifts to try. Caesar cipher is not secure for real encryption but useful for learning cryptography.
