Monoalphabetic Cipher

A substitution cipher where each letter is replaced with another letter from a scrambled alphabet. The key is a 26-letter permutation of the alphabet.

How it works:

  • •Each letter of the alphabet is mapped to a unique substitute letter
  • •The key must contain exactly 26 unique letters
  • •Example: If key is "QWERTY...", then A→Q, B→W, C→E, etc.
  • •More secure than Caesar cipher due to larger key space
