To encrypt the message "Be extra careful of boko haram" using the simple substitution cipher with key C=P+5 (mod 26), we need to substitute each letter with the corresponding letter that is 5 positions ahead in the alphabet.
Here is the encryption process:
Original message: Be extra careful of boko haram Encrypted message: Gj jwfyf hfujsqj tk gtpt mfwfr
Explanation: - B (letter at position 2) is substituted with G (letter at position 7). - E (letter at position 5) is substituted with J (letter at position 10). - Space remains unchanged. - C (letter at position 3) is substituted with H (letter at position 8). - A (letter at position 1) is substituted with F (letter at position 6). - R (letter at position 18) is substituted with W (letter at position 23). - E (letter at position 5) is substituted with J (letter at position 10). - X (letter at position 24) is substituted with C (letter at position 3). - T (letter at position 20) is substituted with Y (letter at position 25). - R (letter at position 18) is substituted with W (letter at position 23). - A (letter at position 1) is substituted with F (letter at position 6). - Space remains unchanged. - C (letter at position 3) is substituted with H (letter at position 8). - A (letter at position 1) is substituted with F (letter at position 6). - R (letter at position 18) is substituted with W (letter at position 23). - E (letter at position 5) is substituted with J (letter at position 10). - F (letter at position 6) is substituted with K (letter at position 11). - U (letter at position 21) is substituted with Z (letter at position 26). - L (letter at position 12) is substituted with Q (letter at position 17). - Space remains unchanged. - O (letter at position 15) is substituted with T (letter at position 20). - F (letter at position 6) is substituted with K (letter at position 11). - Space remains unchanged. - B (letter at position 2) is substituted with G (letter at position 7). - O (letter at position 15) is substituted with T (letter at position 20). - K (letter at position 11) is substituted with P (letter at position 16). - O (letter at position 15) is substituted with T (letter at position 20). - Space remains unchanged. - H (letter at position 8) is substituted with M (letter at position 13). - A (letter at position 1) is substituted with F (letter at position 6). - R (letter at position 18) is substituted with W (letter at position 23). - A (letter at position 1) is substituted with F (letter at position 6). - M (letter at position 13) is substituted with R (letter at position 18).
Therefore, the encrypted message is "Gj jwfyf hfujsqj tk gtpt mfwfr".
