Kryptos
Kryptos is a sculpture by the American artist Jim Sanborn located on the grounds of the Central Intelligence Agency headquarters, the George Bush Center for Intelligence in Langley, Virginia. Since its dedication on November 3, 1990, there has been much speculation about the meaning of the four encrypted messages—most using a Vigenère cipher with a keyed alphabet that uses the keyword "KRYPTOS"—it bears. Of these four messages, the first three have been solved, while the fourth message remains one of the most famous unsolved codes in the world.
