Blokcijfers

Ik ben van plan om een paar artikels te schrijven over enkele blokcijfers en heb hiervoor een infobox aangemaakt. Heeft iemand suggesties ter verbetering van deze infobox Sjabloon:Infobox blokcijfer? Alvast bedankt! M433ktub (overleg) 22 feb 2019 18:06 (CET) PS: andere suggesties zijn ook steeds welkom! M433ktub (overleg) 23 feb 2019 23:25 (CET)

Mijn eerste vraag is: wat is een blokcijfer? Misschien bedoel je blokvercijfering? –bdijkstra (overleg) 22 feb 2019 19:27 (CET)

Wel ja, blokcijfer, blokvercijfering, block cipher. Het is allemaal toch hetzelfde? M433ktub (overleg) 23 feb 2019 17:56 (CET)

Net als dat een handcijfer een vorm is van handvercijfering, of zeg ik nu iets doms? Blokcijfer kan wmb doorverwijzen naar Blokvercijfering. Wikiwerner (overleg) 23 feb 2019 18:38 (CET)

Ik heb het idee, en ik kan het mis hebben, dat "cijfer" in deze betekenis een anglicisme is. –bdijkstra (overleg) 23 feb 2019 23:29 (CET)

Dat zou inderdaad wel eens kunnen. Al wordt het wel gebruikt in enkele wetenschappelijke teksten gepubliceerd door de KU Leuven. ([4], [5], ...) M433ktub (overleg) 23 feb 2019 23:37 (CET)

Ik heb de vraag gesteld in het taalcafé en in die discussie wordt blokvercijfering of blokversleuteling verkozen. Ik zal proberen om deze woorden te gebruiken. Andere suggesties zijn nog steeds welkom! M433ktub (overleg) 24 feb 2019 14:22 (CET)
