I discovered the Enigma Machine on a recent business trip to
Kansas City, MO. I was able to decode his cryptic message but due
to lack of time and no rental car, I was unable to claim the
ultimate treasure...The Cache. So, with the blessing of
Guitar Nutz & Jamz, I present "The Enigma Machine Comes Home
to Texas".
The German Enigma
is surely the best known of the WW2 cipher machines used by either
side in the conflict. Invented in 1918, it was developed as both a
commercial and military encipherment
system before and during the war. Enigma is an electro-mechanical
device that utilizes a stepping wheel system to 'scramble' a
plaintext message to produce ciphertext
via polyalphabetic substitution.
Potentially, the number of ciphertext
alphabets is astronomically large - a fact that led the German
military authorities to believe, wrongly as it turned out, in the
absolute security of this cipher system.
