How It Works

The Advanced Caesar Cipher Tool implements the classic Caesar Cipher algorithm with added functionalities. Here’s a brief overview of the main components:

Encryption

The encryption process involves shifting each letter in the plaintext by a fixed number of places down the alphabet. For example, with a shift of 3, 'A' becomes 'D', 'B' becomes 'E', and so on.

Decryption

Decryption reverses the encryption process. The tool can automatically detect the shift value or use brute force to test all possible shifts.

Cryptanalysis

The tool includes frequency analysis to help identify the most common letters in the ciphertext. This method can significantly speed up the decryption process.
