You are a writer for a journal and you are tasked with a highlight on different cryptography methods used in history and our modern day world.
Write about cryptography and how it has been used historically and in our modern day world. Explain what it is, how it is used and highlight 8-10 different methods and their uses.
Research and investigate 8-10 occurrences/events where cryptography was used. This could come from a historical or fictional event/time. Familiarize yourself with what happened and be prepared to share it within the journal.
For every example explain the event/method where cryptography was used. When and where did it occur? How did it occur? Why? Who was involved? What was the impact of the coded message? What kind of coding method was used?
Reflection: Do you think cryptography is still used today? Is it still necessary or valid? Why or why not? Do you think you or your peers will ever need to use cryptography? Why/how? Why not?
