Chaocipher is an encryption method invented by John F. Byrne in the 1920s. It uses two shifting sets of the alphabet to scramble messages uniquely each time. Only someone with the correct settings can decode the scrambled message back to its original form. For example: Hello World → WahqzIuets etc. There is more information available on the Chaocipher Wikipedia page
