RHoK-Cipher is a demonstrator for a cryptography education project. It is aimed at children aged 8 to 16, and attempts to provide an engaging way to teach the fundamental principles of cryptography.
The authors of the system intend it to include material on the following topics:
- Substitution ciphers
- The Playfair cipher
- The 'Battleships' cipher
- Diffie-Hellman key exchange
- One-time pads
- Steganography using images
RHoK-Cipher extends an existing cryptography learning environment with an exciting storyline involving espionage, intrigue and character development. It also improves upon the existing project in terms of ease-of-use, information design and in providing for a variety of learning styles.
RHoK-Cipher was developed at the Random Hacks of Kindness Glasgow Cybersecurity Special Event , 7th-8th September 2013.
