How good is this encryption?

Slyke · May 8th, 2007, 07:48 AM

Just wanted to see how strong this encryption method is...

"A08 288 01A 440 07B 03E 7BC 01A A00 076 C01 8B5 014 ED0 070 E00 457 3E7 B00 1E8 700 C49 01A 930 1E4 C01 9C8 3E7 ED0 033 A02 3E3 016 810 01E A3E 708 004 110 07B 401 E04 00C 540 18E E01 F64 003 220 169 601 46A 007 490 2F3 23E 781 072 6D0 143 B00 C54 3E7 D90 049 600 518 01A AD0 08C 001 F8D 006 6A0 047 704 365 3E7 640 670 302 3E0 004 553 E77 201 073 002 980 162 E01 E97 019 513 E7B 601 2B8 00C C00 143 102 014 007 103 E78 900 E8C 014 120 05A 63E 752 015 AD0 027 100 8B6 01F 670 043 402 118 3E7 2D0 141 602 24D 004 B40 0CA 33E 710 003 4B0 234 300 473 3E7 500 067 301 AC8 01D BD0 184 83E 719 021 6E0 141 D01 C95 042 2"

Means:
"Can anyone crack this encryption? For example: The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog!"

Can someone work out the algorythm, or anything else about this? What would you rate it from 1 to 10 (10 being the best)?

Can you crack this one: "708 73E 01A 100 235 801 AD8 023 6C0 1AC A3E 7AE 018 570 146 A00 226 3E7 8C0 1C8 601 473 003 973 E7A D01 654 003 420 427 "

=p

I'll tell you the answer when you give up.

If this is some kind of OTP encrypted blob then you can forget about decrypting it. Unless you have some of the NSA's computing resources at your disposal, of course.

If you like crypto stuff, have a look at this Enigma page. Here's how to write one in C#.
