Abstract
Examples discussed herein disclose, among other things, a method. The method includes, among other things, obtaining a plaintext, obtaining a key from a plurality of keys, and determining whether the plaintext is longer than a predefined threshold length. If the plaintext is longer than the predefined threshold length, the method may encrypt the plaintext with the key to generate a first ciphertext having a length of the plaintext, where the character at a predefined position within the first ciphertext belongs to a first subset of characters. And if the plaintext is not longer than the predefined threshold length, the method may encrypt the plaintext with the key to generate a second ciphertext, which is longer than the plaintext, where the character at the same predefined position in the second ciphertext belongs to a second subset of characters.
