Daedalus Cipher is also a type of substitution cipher.
It is also called reverse Caesar hence we will still use the encryption technique of the Caesar Cipher which is the shifting of the alphabets. But, instead of writing the two sets of alphabets in its precise arrangement, the other set must be inverted just like an Atbash Cipher.
Examples:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A
(shift of 3)
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
C B A Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D
A=C, B=B, C=A, and so on. Two pairs will have the same equivalent letter in Daedalus. Like B=B & O=O in this shift.
(shift of 1)
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
A Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B
