Division B students should only expect to see Cryptanalysis of the Porta cipher only on State/National competitions (3.h.vi) while Division C can expect to do Encrypt/Decrypt of the Porta Cipher for Regional tournaments (3.g.iv) and Cryptanalysis on State/National competitions (3.h.vi). (Section: 3 / Line: 7) 12/08/2021 Should Division B students be able to perform cryptanalysis of The Rail Fence Cipher even though only Division C students should be able to encrypt/decrypt them? Division B students should only expect to see Cryptanalysis of the Rail Fence cipher only on State/National competitions with an offset of 0 and a range for the rails and offset (3.h.vii) while Division C can expect to do a Decrypt of the Rail Fence Cipher for Regional tournaments given the number of rails and an unknown offset (3.g.v) and Cryptanalysis on State/National competitions with a range for the rails and either 0 for the offset (3.h.vii) or a range for the offset (3.i.iii). ‹ Inquiry & Nature of Science Are Division B students expected to be able to perform cryptanalysis with the Porta Cipher even though only Division C students should be able to encrypt/decrypt them? ›
