The Vigenere cipher was developed in the 16th century in France. Which of the following is a correct characteristic of this algorithm?

A.
It uses one-time pads

B.
It uses a secret word as the key

C.
It requires a messenger to take the right size rod to the destination

D.
It was used in World War II

Explanation:
In this algorithm a Vigenere table is a polyalphabetic algorithm that
uses a secret word to encrypt and decrypt a message. Where the Caesar cipher used
one shift alphabet (letters were shifted up three places), the Vigenere cipher had
26 shift alphabets where the letters moved around based on the key values.
