Refer to the exhibit. Which type of cipher method is depicted?

  • stream cipher
  • substitution cipher
  • transposition cipher
  • Caesar cipher

Explanation: There are many cipher methods developed for message encryptions. In transposition ciphers, no letters are replaced; they are simply rearranged. An example of this type of cipher is known as the rail fence cipher. In this transposition, the words are spelled out as if they were a rail fence, meaning some are in front and some in back across several parallel lines.
