46. Caesar Cipher
It is a Substitution Cipher that involves replacing each letter of the secret message with a different letter of the alphabet which is a fixed number of positions further in the alphabet.
Example In this example, each letter in the plaintext message has been shifted 3 letters down in the alphabet.
Plaintext: This is a secret message Ciphertext: wklv lv d vhfuhw phvvdjh

47. Caesar Cipher Decipher: Mx mw rsx tpeywmfpi No. of shifts: 4
Ans:It is not plausible

48. Atbash Cipher
The Atbash cipher is a very specific case of a substitution cipher where the letters of the alphabet are reversed. In otherwords, all As are replaced with Zs, all Bs are replaced with Ys, and so on.
Because reversing the alphabet twice will get you actual alphabet, you can encipher and decipher a message using the exact same algorithm.

49. Atbash Cipher
Decipher this:
Ziv Blf Irtsg
Ans: Are You Right

50. Pigpen Cipher
The pigpen cipher is a simple substitution cipher exchanging letters for symbols based on a grid.

If that team cannot answer it correctly it gets -50 and the team who gave challenge gets +50.

56. Tap Code
Each letter was communicated by tapping two numbers. The first designated the horizontal row and the second designated the vertical row. The letter "X" was used to break up sentences and the letter "C" replaced the letter "K". For "WATER" the code would be the following 1 2 3 4 5 A B C D E F G H I J L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Now Decode / / / / / /

57. Tap Code Answer: Let us see who does it first

Answer: Let us see who does it first 1 2 3 4 5 A B C D E F G H I J L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

58. Rail Fence Cipher
In the rail fence cipher, the plaintext is written downwards on successive "rails" of an imaginary fence, starting a new column when the bottom is reached. The message is then read off in rows. For example, if we have 3 rails and a message of "This is a secret message", you would write out:
T S A C T S G
H I S R M S E
I S E E E A J
The last J is just a random letter to fill in the space. The secret message is then condensed and regrouped.

60. Morse Code Example: ‘Winners’ is encoded as follows:
Morse code is a method for transmitting information, using standardized sequences of short and long marks or pulses - commonly known as "dots" and "dashes" - for the letters, numerals, punctuation and special characters of a message.
Example:
‘Winners’ is encoded as follows:

62. Anagram Notified madman into water
This is the anagram of a famous quote:
Notified madman into water
Ans: Time and tide wait for no man

63. Face-Off
Rules
Each team will have 5 mins to encrypt MESSAGE of their choice using CAESAR CIPHER
The message encrypted should be legible and meaningful. Which means it can’t be random words. The message must be a sentence or phrase.
The team to correctly decipher the code first wins.
If wrongly decoded the team loses.
The No. of shifts should be from 1-5.
The encoding team will not inform the opposite team about the number of shifts.
But the judges will be told before the encryption begins

64. Caesar Cipher
It is a Substitution Cipher that involves replacing each letter of the secret message with a different letter of the alphabet which is a fixed number of positions further in the alphabet.
Example In this example, each letter in the plaintext message has been shifted 3 letters down in the alphabet.
Plaintext: This is a secret message Ciphertext: wklv lv d vhfuhw phvvdjh
