on video How does the Enigma machine work?



 How does the Enigma machine work?

The Enigma Machine was used during World War II by the German army to encrypt messages. It almost looks like a typewriter. There are 26 keys and 26 letters that can light up. These lights tell you how the keys will be mixed. The machine works like an electrical circuit. The rotors at the back of the machine do most of the scrambling by shuffling the wiring. The patch panel on the front adds another layer of encryption. The keypad mechanism connects or disconnects the circuit to turn on a light bulb. The wire path is difficult to follow, so I recommend following it in 3D! Each time a key is released, the rotors on the back spin. This is achieved by the mechanism which includes the actuator bar, pawl, pusher and index wheels.

At the beginning of the 1940s, the best English specialists, including Alan Turing, were gathered in great secrecy at Bletchley Park, where their main task was to decipher German messages. They had enormous resources at their disposal - including gigantic specially made calculating machines. Thus Turing's "bomb" will thwart the machine's encryption
