Human readable ciphertext?

2026-07-19 16:41 UTC

Hey folks sorry if this is the wrong place for this kind of question but I was wondering if anyone knew of any encryption schemes where the cipher text looks like innocuous, human readable, plain text? I’m almost positive this exists in some form I just don’t know where to look. Thanks!

    Might be a fun project if there's nothing out there already (I assume you've searched), check out text steganography if you haven't: https://ctf.support/steganography/text-steganography/ https://www.fourmilab.ch/javascrypt/stego.html
