if( word[temp] >= 'a' && word[temp] <= 'z')
{
word[temp] = (tolower(word[temp]));
word[temp] += map[temp] - 'z';
word[temp]++;
}
else
{
cout << " Error\n";
return 0;
}
}
cout << " Encrypted: " << word << endl;

Doesn't your map string need an 'x' in it, between the 'y' and 'w'?

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using std::string;
using std::cout;
using std::cin;
int main()
{
const string cipher("zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba");
string userInput;
cout << "Enter word: ";
cin >> userInput;
for (const auto & letter: userInput)
{
cout << cipher[toupper(letter) - 65];
}
cout << '\n';
