Guide
What is Atbash Cipher?
Atbash is a simple substitution cipher originally used for the Hebrew alphabet. It reverses the alphabet: A becomes Z, B becomes Y, and so on. Like ROT13, applying Atbash twice returns the original text.
| Original | A | B | C | … | X | Y | Z |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Atbash | Z | Y | X | … | C | B | A |
