How do you decode Enigma cipher?

How do you decode Enigma cipher?

To decrypt a message, one needs not only an Enigma machine, but also the knowledge of the starting state, i.e. at which positions the wheels were when the text was typed in. To decrypt the message, the machine must be set to the same starting state, and the cipher text is entered.

What cipher did enigma use?

substitution cipher
## Introduction to the Enigma The Enigma machine implemented a *substitution cipher*, which encrypts a message by substituting one character for another. Such ciphers go back at least as far as Julius Caesar, who used a simple substitution cipher to encrypt military orders.

Who broke Enigma code?

Bletchley Park is to celebrate the work of three Polish mathematicians who cracked the German Enigma code in World War II. Marian Rejewski, Henryk Zygalski and Jerzy Różycki will be remembered in a talk on Sunday at the park’s annual Polish Day.

Who created Enigma?

Arthur Scherbius
Enigma machine/Inventors
Similar machines were first made in the early 20th century, and the first ‘Enigma’ was invented by German engineer Arthur Scherbius in 1918, who sought to sell it for commercial, rather than military, purposes.

Who stole Enigma machine?

Turing
But the work of Bletchley Park – and Turing’s role there in cracking the Enigma code – was kept secret until the 1970s, and the full story was not known until the 1990s. It has been estimated that the efforts of Turing and his fellow code-breakers shortened the war by several years.
