Description
An account of the resource
Cipher Tools and Machines contains examples of cipher tools and machines seen through out history, particularly within the context of military history. From Ancient Greece to the Cold War, cryptology has played a significant part in the communication and intelligence efforts between opposing forces.
They, along with cryptanalysts, have even been credited with shortening the duration of wars. Without the British intelligence project ULTRA, WWII may have lasted for another two years. However, while many great cryptanalysts hail from Britain, the UK is not exclusive in their cryptographic abilities. The Enigma was invented in Germany, and its stronger rendition, Fialka- in Russia. In comparison to these cryptomachines, the US SIGABA remains unbroken. Those are only a few cipher machines flound in this collection.

Enigma
Description
An account of the resource
The Enigma was an electromechanical cipher machine used by Germany in WWII. It came in the form of a typewriter and was adopted by the German Army, Air Force, and Navy to secure communications.
In 1939, Alan Turing broke the cipher and developed a method to detect the settings on the Enigma and let the Allied Forced decipher messages. This was significant as it resulted in the Allied Forces evading German U-Boats in the Battle of the Atlantic.
