Does it increase security to put two decks of cards (total of 104 cards)
to the deck you use to encrypt (instead of the default of one deck of
cards)? I would think yes and it doesnt make the encrypting/using the
deck too complicated either.
How about encrypting the message with one deck, then re-encrypting with
second deck, then re-encrypting it with third deck, etc. etc.? Or
encrypting it once with deck of cards (52 cards in total), then with
"three deck of cards" deck (156 cards in total), then with deck of cards
(52 cards in total)?
I have tryed the solitaire cipher (with one deck) and I have found that
its not that slow either. You could easily carry couple/few deck of
cards with you and re-encrypt the message couple times if you want more
security and was just wondering... :)
