Other Classic Ciphers

I recommend when you see a ciphertext and you don't have the cipher name, run through a list of these http://practicalcryptography.com/ciphers/classical-era/ and see if any jump out at you. It's an imperfect art, but it is an art.

So this should be a bit of fun... use the skills you have now to work through a few different challenges... some I will tell you the cipher, others you'll have to fight through.

  1. Frankly, I don't like pigs
    1. 10000 01101 01010 01010 00110 01101 00000 10010 10001
  2. It's an enigma to me...
    1. Configuration:
      1. '3-rotor',
        'EKMFLGDQVZNTOWYHXUSPAIBRCJ\<R','A','A','AJDKSIRUXBLHWTMCQGZNPYFVOE\<F','A','A','BDFHJLCPRTXVZNYEIWGAKMUSQO\<W','A','A','AY BR CU DH EQ FS GL IP JX KN MO TZ VW','',true)
      2. Wiring: (If Required): 'LEYJVCNIXWPBQMDRTAKZGFUHOS'
    2. Item to Decode:
      1. IZHXB AQPJJ THIZT IWTRS LQGVR DYOCY ALEUY HDUHX HUWMR TNBGT SXQIV X
      2. This decrypts to a URL with all special characters removed... figure out which URL this points to and submit it as the flag.
  3. A fine day...
    1. Ahbce u vgha fue

There are some good lessons to be learned about when to go bruteforce, when to figure it out manually... and also to look for hints ;)
