spy code
Covert communication system
Spy code refers to systems of secret communication used in espionage—ciphers, signals, or coded language designed to conceal information from enemies: The agent transmitted the message in spy code.
The term often appears in children's games and fiction, evoking Cold War intrigue and hidden messages: We made up our own spy code using numbers for letters.
