Such as Leonardo da Vinci used his own language and designs to ensure security on his works. The methods I used to research this topic could quite possibly differ from those who may have researched before me. Some similar methods may have been the use of internet databases, the use of text documents, and the use of primary sources. Finding primary sources proved to be difficult because all we have from Leonardo da Vinci are his drawings and few comments. For past historians decrypting Leonardo da Vinci’s “language” proved difficult, but as time progressed so has technology. New technologies have allowed historians and scientists to decipher his comments and we now have working models of some of his inventions, such as the Flying Machine and the Machine Gun. We have to trust the people who decrypted the schematics because the skills required to do so are not very common. However, finding primary sources on the more modern parts was fairly easy. The schematics, first hand accounts, instruction manuals and even maintenance records are easily available on the internet. Secondary sources are always easy to find. The challenging part of the research is trying to figure out which ones are credible and which ones are
