In reference to pathfinder14 thread titled 'strategy'.
One form of silent communications that our group utilizes is the braille Alphabet and numbers. Who among you can read braille?
Added to the low probability of someone being able to read it, it is encoded.
Obviously I am not going to tell you what our code is, or even if we actually use this system, but I'll give you an example of one.
Take the * as a dot, and a 0 as the depression.
** 0* 0*
00 ** *0
00 0* 00
=
C W I
Now image those same letters put in code. Lets say a simple geometric code.
Left to right, top to bottom, right to left, bottom to top.
Draw equal length lines for each of those base instructions and you end up with a square.
Now lay over each of them so that a letter looks like this ** 00 00
Now write CWI in a square using the braille characters.
** 00 00, 0* ** 0*, *0 0* 00 = cwi left to right, top to bottom, right to left.
There is nearly an infinite number of combinations when you apply geometric shapes just in the two dimensional sense. If you use three dimensional shapes, the are infinite.
Your cryptographic key should be a series of geometric shapes, in a specific order, and in a specified direction depending on the shape in question, and the person in question.
They may well figure out it's braille. They may well figure out the geometry, and with enough modeling break the code. But it's not going to be anytime soon.
Now lets apply another factor. Each of your members could have a specific geometric shape to represent their name. Only your group knows what each others shapes are.
I.E. Jane is a triangle, Joe is a square, John is a Hexagon.
Depending on the person, they either start clockwise, or counter clockwise.
You could communicate information with this system without ever speaking a word, and for that matter, you could read it in pitch black conditions.
Further, since this system consist if raised bumps vs depressions, it converts to Morse code style nicely. A dash is a raised dot, a dot is depression.
Anyone listening in will think whomever is sending the signal is drunk or just screwing around unless they are listening for a pattern, but without knowing the geometric shape that 'each person' bases their code on, it will be very difficult even for the code to be broken.
This is just an example, we may or may not actually use this system.
