Crank is short for "CRyptANalysis toolKit", and its overall purpose is to
|
|
provide a powerful and extensible environment for solving classical
|
|
(pen-and-paper) ciphers, providing as much automation as possible. Classical
|
|
ciphers include common schemes like monoalphabetic substitutions, where each
|
|
letter of the alphabet is mapped to another (usually different) letter
|
|
consistently through the text. The first version of Crank is restricting
|
|
itself to these special ciphers. Other algorithms forever devoid of Crank's
|
|
attentions include Enigma, RSA, DES, MurkelFish, or anything else invented
|
|
after 1900. They're hard(er).
