Wired's Hide and Seek

7th February 2010

So I read this article about an attempt of one air force analyst to sell secrets to Iraq and China and there author claims that two puzzles created by Regan (the spy in question) were sent to the National Security Agency, where cryptanalysts spent hundreds of hours without any result. Then, they found some other guy that cracked the first code and apparently it was enciphered with Caesar’s shift.

Now, are they telling me that NSA cryptanalysts failed to break Caesar’s code? Because I can hardly believe in that.
