Frequently Asked Questions
What is Bacon's cipher?
Bacon's cipher is a steganographic method of message encoding developed by Francis Bacon in 1605 where each letter is represented by a 5-character sequence of two symbols (A and B).
How was Bacon's cipher historically hidden?
It was hidden in plain sight using two slightly different typographic fonts (e.g., normal typeface for 'A' and italic/bold for 'B').
