ENIGMA M4 - Breaking German Navy Ciphers edit / delete

"The "Breaking German Navy Ciphers" Project was founded in 2012. The goal is to break original radio messages, which were encoded with the famous German ENIGMA cipher machine. Up to now, we've succeeded in deciphering over 60 original World War II Enigma I M3 and M4 messages." This includes a batch of messages found in a sunken U-boat in the mid-80s -- surprisingly readable given 40 years underwater!

The Enigma cipher machine edit / delete

"These pages give an introduction to substitution ciphers and then go on to explain exactly how the Enigma machine worked and how it was used." A good description of how to actually implement it in software.

M4 Message Breaking Project edit / delete

Distributed project to break as-yet undecrypted WW2 Enigma messages. Interesting application of distributed computing to the field of history rather than biology or chemistry.
