Symmetric cryptography where always has a common key for encryption and decryption. We have to use the common key to decrypt the encrypted message.        Common types of symmetric cryptography which we face in CTF challenges are: Caesar Cipher  Rot13  Vigenere Cipher  Morse Code Bacon Cipher Alphabetical Substitution      The tools we use for decryption are: CyberChef ( website ) Caesar cipher( website ) vigenere solver ( website )            2. Hash Function Cryptography : There is no common key value like as symmetric cryptography. But in this cryptography, there has the...
