Answers to Questions (FAQ)

What is a Triliteral cipher? (Definition)

A triliteral cipher is, as its name suggests, a cipher that uses 3 letters (it is also called ternary, or trifid, for 3 elements).

It is a cipher by substitution, a plain letter being replaced by a triplet of 3 letters.

How to encrypt using Triliteral cipher?

The Triliteral cipher uses a substitution triliteral alphabet (which can be defined more or less randomly).

Example: Encrypt DCODE with the alphabet A=AAA, B=AAB, C=AAC, D=ABA, etc. The encrypted message is: ABA AAC BBC ABA ABB

What are the most common triliteral alphabets?

Base 3 (space ⌴ at the end = CCC):

How to decrypt Triliteral cipher?

Triliteral Decryption requires to know the trileteral alphabet used in order to perform a substitution.

Example: The ciphered message ABAAACBBCABAABB have been encoded with the alphabet A=AAA, B=AAB, C=AAC, D=ABA, etc. The original plain text is DCODE.

How to decipher Triliteral without knowing the alphabet?

It is possible to transform ciphertext in mono-alphabetical substitution and use dCode solver.

How to recognize triliteral ciphertext?

The ciphered message has 3 distinct characters equally distributed. It is usually the 3 letters A, B and C but it can be 3 numbers, or 3 different things.

Like a Bacon cipher, it is possible to hide a Triliteral cipher in a text, for example by alternating 3 fonts, or variations of letters: uppercase, lowercase, bold, italic, underlined, etc.

All notions of triplet, number 3, triple, words trifid, triliteral, tricode, triletter, tridigital, etc. are clues.

What are the 27 letters of the Triliteral Alphabet?

The list of permutations with repetition of 3 characters A, B and C is: AAA, AAB, AAC, ABA, ABB, ABC, ACA, ACB, ACC, BAA, BAB, BAC, BBA, BBB, BBC, BCA, BCB, BCC, CAA, CAB, CAC, CBA, CBB, CBC, CCA, CCB, CCC

When was the Triliteral cipher invented?

The first triliteral alphabet appeared between 1550 and 1650.
