This cipher is just 4 rounds of Vigenere with progressively shorter keys...
- billpg 16y agoExactly. It's a very flawed cipher which I invented when I was young and naive.
- swolchok 16y agoI realized that; I was just hoping that this observation would lead to an attack, but it's not clear to me that there's a particularly easy/reliable extension of the Vigenere attacks...
- billpg 16y agoGotcha. The vulnerability I thought of could be applied to Vigenere but in a roundabout sort of way.
