    This site is very cool and it is like an interaction site so it makes the website a lot more interesting to go on. I also found it very cool how there were actual true stories and journals within the little interaction thing.

      What is it? 
  • informing him of plans to invade the United States. On being notified of these plans, officials in Washington were understandably perturbed, and hastened to effect the entry of the US into the war.
  • the German defence establishment was eager to improve its compromised communications system, and recognised
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • the potential of a signalling device that had originally been made for the business market.
  • Enigma allowed an operator to type in a message, then scramble it by means of three to five notched wheels, or rotors, which displayed different letters of the alphabet. The receiver needed to know the exact settings of these rotors in order to reconstitute the coded text. Over the years the basic machine became more complicated, as German code experts added plugs with electronic circuits.

      How it was used, could become one of our slide
  • Dr Arthur Scherbius had developed his 'Enigma' machine, capable of transcribing coded information, in the hope of interesting commercial companies in secure communications
