Question 441
Considering the following key using a block of five characters, encryption of the message “NETWORKING” using the Transposition Cipher is:

Plaintext : 5 4 3 2 1

Ciphertext 1 2 3 4 5

A
GNIKROWTEN
B
OGWNTIEKNR
C
OWTENGNIKR
D
NREKTIWNOG
Question 441 Explanation: 
→A transposition cipher is a method of encryption by which the positions held by units of plaintext (which are commonly characters or groups of characters) are shifted according to a regular system, so that the ciphertext constitutes a permutation of the plaintext. That is, the order of the units is changed (the plaintext is reordered).
→According to given question ,
→Plaintext : 5 4 3 2 1
→Ciphertext 1 2 3 4 5
→Given message “NETWO RKING”.
→The message is divided into two equal messages of 5 characters length.
→According to cipher text, The reverse of 5 characters of message is OWTEN GNIKR
