“…Unfortunately, the first attempt yielded no readable words (see Figure 2). Karl de Leeuw (2000) writes that the WIC had one cipher, introduced in 1739, that was used over and again during the Fourth Anglo-Dutch War (1780-1784). It was specially designed for the encryption of military messages.…”

Following the tradition of previous HistoCrypt conferences, HistoCrypt 2024 will address all aspects of historical cryptography and cryptanalysis. It is inherently crossdisciplinary, incorporating work from various fields such as mathematics, history, history of ideas, computer science, AI, computational linguistics, linguistics, and image processing. The conference's topics include, but are not limited to, the use of cryptography in military, diplomacy, business, and other areas, analysis of historical ciphers using modern computerized methods, unsolved historical cryptograms, mechanical encryption machines, the history of cryptography, the roots of modern ciphers in historical cryptology, linguistic aspects of cryptology, the influence of cryptography on the course of history, cryptology's connections to neighboring fields of study, and teaching and promoting cryptology in schools, universities, and the public.The scientific program was compiled by an international scientific program committee, consisting of researchers in cryptology, history, intelligence, language technology, and linguistics. The program committee welcomed submissions in two tracks: regular papers up to 10 pages (including appendices, excluding references) on substantial, original, and unpublished research, including evaluation results, where appropriate; and short papers up to 4 pages (including appendices, excluding references) on smaller, focused contributions, work in progress, negative results, surveys, tutorials, or opinion pieces. This year's conference received a record high of 42 submissions, a 75% increase compared to the average of 24 submissions in previous HistoCrypt conferences from 2018 to 2023. The submissions came from authors in European countries including Austria,
