置换密码技术和转置密码技术都是传统密码的类型,用于将明文转换为密文。
替换密码技术:
在替换密码技术中,纯文本字符被其他字符、数字和符号替换,在替换密码技术中,字符的身份发生了变化,而其位置保持不变。
转置密码技术:
转置密码技术重新排列纯文本字符的位置。在转置密码术中,字符的位置改变了,但字符的身份没有改变。
置换密码技术与转置密码技术的区别:
S.NO | Substitution Cipher Technique | Transposition Cipher Technique |
---|---|---|
1. | In substitution Cipher Technique, plain text characters are replaced with other characters, numbers and symbols. | In transposition Cipher Technique, plain text characters are rearranged with respect to the position. |
2. | Substitution Cipher’s forms are: Mono alphabetic substitution cipher and poly alphabetic substitution cipher. | Transposition Cipher’s forms are: Key-less transposition cipher and keyed transposition cipher. |
3. | In substitution Cipher Technique, character’s identity is changed while its position remains unchanged. | While in transposition Cipher Technique, The position of the character is changed but character’s identity is not changed. |
4. | In substitution Cipher Technique, The letter with low frequency can detect plain text. | While in transposition Cipher Technique, The Keys which are nearer to correct key can disclose plain text. |
5. | The example of substitution Cipher is Caesar Cipher. | The example of transposition Cipher is Reil Fence Cipher. |
