It's not "little chance", its absolutely zero chance. It is mathematically impossible to decypher one.. that is, unless you use a 10 sided die like in this video.

Talk about making a Rube Goldberg out of a simple process. Actual one time encryption doesn’t use punctuation and didn’t use numbers therefore allowing a more complex encryption, with easier manipulation.
I don't understand how a 10 sided die is supposed to be secure. If you operate with a 26 character alphabet, you need a 26 sided die. Otherwise, the person deciphering can know that the plaintext character is never more than 10 spaces in the alphabet away from the ciphertext character. Once you know that, you can perform a statistical analysis and find a plaintext combination that is more statistically likely to be the right one, completely breaking the encryption. The bright side is that you dont need any special 10 sided die in the first place, you can just use a pair of normal 6 sided die to produce random characters without this security flaw.
To clarify on how you would use the normal pair of dice: Group your alphabet (suggested 30 chars long) into five groups of six: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 1. A. B. C. D. E. F 2. G. H. I. J. K. L 3. M. N. O. P. Q. R 4. S. T. U. V. W. X. 5. Y. Z. "." "," "?" "SPACEBAR" Mark one die to represent the row, and the other to represent group, and the other to represent the letter within the group.. Role both die at the same time. If you rolled [4,6] for example, the resulting letter would be "X" because you go down to the fourth group, and over to the 6th letter in that group. If you role a 6 on the "group die", simply re-roll.
I use the OTP all the time to encrypt messages. Unfortunately I don't have anyone to send them to, I just use it for like passwords and stuff that I email to myself to keep on the cloud. The password to my password is on a post it note. I know that they can brute force it but it's a fairly long password
Froggo Doggo I’m interested in how you are using OTPs to encrypt passwords and the thought had gone through my mind too. In the end I ditched the idea because I would have to retain the One-Time-Pad in order to be able to decrypt the message containing the password. So, if I was going to have to keep that somewhere safe enough to stop someone getting it and reading the password I thought why not just put the password in the same place instead instead?
@@PedalBikerUK for me I just use it to back up an encrypted form of my password, and the key is written on a post it note. It's so nobody has my password by looking on my desk and nobody has it if they hack my cloud. You'd need both
I *think* I understood that, haha. One question, though: so the person you're sending the encrypted message to needs to have the exact same number block set (is that the OTP)? That kinda blows, I mean you couldn't just send the message to a relative stranger. I suppose it definitely has a use just for communicating with your buddies, but otherwise that's it.
clamum That’s the exact usage case. Security between known parties. You can do trusted connections between strangers using GPG or some other kind of public/private key arrangement.
Well sending an encrypted message to strangers is a difficult problem that was only solved relatively recently with asymmetric cryptography. Unfortunately, it requires having the computational power to generate extremely long prime numbers.
It actually does not. Oh, and neither does the 10 sided die he mentioned. To start with the playing cards: its not secure because each card is *not* independent of the previous card. A OTP key depends on each character being totally random, and independent of all other characters in the sequence. However, because there are only so many of "x" type card, there is a statistical link between each card. As for the 10 sided dice, its insecure because it garuntees that the ciphertext character never more than 10 alphabet slots away from the plaintext character. If we have an alphabet of 26 characters, that gives a significant possibility of the code being broken by statistical analysis.
@@Ashley-1917 I am not sure you realize the significance of card shuffling. The number of combinations of possible arrangements of a 52-card deck is more than a billion times more than the number of seconds that have passed from the Big Bang and beyond the present to the eventual heat death of the universe due to entropy. It borders on a statistical certainty that no card shuffle has EVER been or ever will be repeated.
@@davidcookmfs6950 I'm aware of that. To be fair, it is still probably a very difficult problem to solve simply because the deck gets reshuffled every 52 characters.
@@davidcookmfs6950 The total possible combinations is not as relevant here. What matters is the odds of a given card to be in a given place in the sequence. That chance is 1/52. Because all the cards relate to one-another, you can detect patterns when you compare it to an expected character frequency of the plaintext.
Good video. I find the Cuban checkerboard a lot easier and simple to use. The system used today by cuban intelligence and spies.
