Solution

The answer is a. Transposition Cipher. This type of cipher works by rearranging the letters of the plaintext, rather than replacing them (which is what substitution ciphers do). So, if you have a word and you shuffle its letters, you're essentially using a form of transposition cipher.

Alice and Bob want to communicate securely over an insecure channel where Evecould be listening. To ensure their message remains confidential, they decide to usea simple substitution cipher for encryption and decryption, where each letter in thealphabet is shifted by a fixed number of places.For this exercise, use a shift of 3 places to the right (a Caesar Cipher). For example,'A' becomes 'D', 'B' becomes 'E', 'Z' becomes 'C', and so on. Spaces and punctuationare not encoded; they remain unchanged.Alice wants to send the following message to Bob: "HELLO WORLD".a. Encrypt Alice's message using the specified shift.
