Cicada 3301 is probably the most mysterious organization on the Internet, but no one has provided a thorough explanation.

Cicada 3301 is probably the most mysterious organization on the Internet, but no one has provided a thorough explanation. Since 2012, the people of this organization have posted mysterious drawings with codes to wait for the answers of the "most wonderful people" according to them.

The pictures are uploaded online under the name Cicada 3301. No one knows who uploaded the image and what their purpose is, but most people speculate that it is an organization. Although it has been in operation for nearly 3 years, almost no one knows the information about the organization because they have a very good technique to remove traces of information.

Cicada 3301 started to be known on January 5, 2012, when a user on page 4chan posted a photo with the following content: 'Hello, we are looking for individuals with intelligence Intelligent peak. To find them, we have given a test. This message hides a message. Decode it, and it will lead you to find us. We look forward to meeting a few people who can decode the message perfectly. Good luck. 3301 '.

Later, the group continued to post codes that, according to many, need a lot of integrated skills to be able to decode them. Decoders need to be proficient in information technology, decoding skills and positioning capabilities. Even, Cicada 3301 also posted these codes in public places so that people without the Internet could participate in the decoding. Sometimes, clues in drawings are related to pop music, literature and non-technology related topics. No one knows what purpose they require in such fields.

What will you get when decoding these drawings?

There are many people who believe that the codes of this organization are unexplainable, but actually a few people have deciphered them successfully and received congratulatory emails from the organization. However, they never said the reason for the organization recruiting them. From the code, it can be speculated that Cicada 3301 is a hacker group like Anonymous. It is also possible that famous intelligence organizations such as CIA or MI6 recruited them. Information security, encryption technology and other skills used to 'crack' images of Cicada are likely provided by a large-scale organization. The process of recruiting members of this organization must have been successful recently, after the recruitment of people on January 5, 2013, they again issued codes on January 5, 2014.

Until now, no one knows who is behind this organization, but people are still anxious to look forward to new codes next year. It is not known if this is really an intelligence organization as people speculate or not, but there is a tremendous incentive for them to decipher the biggest mystery in Internet history.
