Benefit of combining classical substitution ciphers with modern cryptography
I know that a simple monoalphabetic substitution cipher is considered extremely weak, on account of linguistic frequency-analysis attacks. However, assume the following:
cleartext is encrypted (wit …

Using one-way hash functions as the encryption method
"Frequency analysis of the output might help determine simple words in
the ciphertext such as 'the' etc if that word is repeated and sent
multiple times. This isn't necessarily a problem as it' …
