List of cryptosystems

A cryptosystem is a set of cryptographic algorithms that map ciphertexts and plaintexts to each other.[1]

Private-key cryptosystems

Private-key cryptosystems use the same key for encryption and decryption.

  • Caesar cipher
  • Substitution cipher
  • Enigma machine
  • Data Encryption Standard
  • Twofish
  • Serpent
  • Camellia
  • Salsa20
  • ChaCha20
  • Blowfish
  • CAST5
  • Kuznyechik
  • RC4
  • 3DES
  • Skipjack
  • Safer
  • IDEA
  • Advanced Encryption Standard, also known as AES and Rijndael.[2]

Public-key cryptosystems

Public-key cryptosystems use a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption.
