What is Morse Code?
• Morse code is code/method for transmitting information in which combinations of "dots" and "dashes" are used to represent letters of the alphabet, numerals, and punctuation marks. It can be also referred as "dits and dats" and "on-off tones".
Who invented Morse?
• Samuel F.B. Morse invented this code for use with his electric telegraph in the mid-1830s and was used extensively for early radio communication beginning in the 1890s.

Encryption:
For encrypting its just simply encrypting the massage to it's corresponding dots and dash value.
Decryption:
As easy as translating the Morse code in its corresponding plain text values
