The informational plaque is on the wall behind Pillar 1. It is entirely in English and appears to not contain any encrypted text.

The plaque reads: NKRYPT comprises eight stainless steel columns incised with coded messages represented as numbers, letters and graphic elements.

The name NKRYPT is derived from the Greek word 'kruptos', which means hidden. Designed by Dr Stuart Kohlhagen PSM, this enigmatic exhibit will challenge even the keenest code-breakers for years to come.

NKRYPT was launched by The Hon. Kate Lundy Senator for the Australian Capital Territory 4 March 2013
