* Generally assume that the algorithm is known. This allows easy distribution of s/w and h/w implementations. Hence assume just keeping key secret is sufficient to secure encrypted messages. Have plaintext X, ciphertext Y, key K, encryption alg Ek, decryption alg Dk. * All traditional schemes are symmetric / single key / private-key encryption algorithms, with a single key, used for both encryption and decryption, since both sender and receiver are equivalent, either can encrypt or decrypt messages using that common key. * * * * Substitution ciphers form the first of the fundamental buildin
