About this video
In this video, we explain the Bacon cipher, which was invented by Sir Francis Bacon. We also show how to "encrypt/decrypt" using it in CrypTool 2. Actually, the Bacon cipher is a steganography method and not a cipher, so speaking of encryption is not correct. Regardless, it is always referred to as a "cipher".
