As far as I know, before Alberti there were only rudimentary approaches ( simple substitution ) and even an Alberti-like code would probably have been decoded already. So one can only assume that, if there is an encryption, it is based on a completely unknown, unique system. This would not surprise me. So the question is what non-anachronistic method(s) would be possible.
