FAQ

What is a Caesar cipher?

A Caesar cipher is a simple substitution cipher that shifts each letter by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet. It is one of the earliest and simplest encryption techniques.

How do I decrypt a Caesar cipher?

Set the shift value to the negative of the encryption shift. If you don't know the shift value, try all 25 possible shifts to find readable text.

Is Caesar cipher secure for real-world use?

No. Caesar cipher is extremely weak and easily broken. It is mainly used for educational purposes, CTF challenges and simple puzzles.

Can I use custom shift values?

Yes. You can set any shift value from 1 to 25 for English text. This helps you explore different encryption and decryption scenarios.
