About Atbash

What is Atbash

Atbash reverses the alphabet: A becomes Z, B becomes Y, and so on. Originally used for the Hebrew alphabet.

Self-inverse

Because the mapping is symmetric, applying Atbash twice returns the original text — one button does both.

Uses

Puzzles, ciphers in games and teaching substitution ciphers.
