Abstract: Systems and method of encrypting text using glyphs. Implementations of a first method may include receiving text including one or more characters having an order, altering the order of the one or more characters using a mixer cipher to produce one or more mixed characters, and substituting for the one or more mixed characters one or more encrypted characters using a stochastic cipher. The method may further include generating at least one glyph by associating one or more symbols and a position of the one or more symbols within a perimeter of the at least one glyph with the one or more encrypted characters and writing the at least one glyph to a substrate.
