Title
Analyzing the Spanish strip cipher by combining combinatorial and statistical methods
Abstract
AbstractThe attack was implemented in Java and tested on a laptop with an i7 processor and 4 GB of RAM. The tests were carried out with several real telegrams from the Spanish Civil War. In this article, the authors provide the results of one test that was successfully performed only using the first 201 ciphertext symbols of a Spanish telegram.
