In July 1942, Turing developed a complex code-breaking technique he named ‘Turingery’. This method fed into work by others at Bletchley in understanding the ‘Lorenz’ cipher machine. Lorenz enciphered German strategic messages of high importance: the ability of Bletchley to read these contributed greatly to the Allied war effort.

May 25, 2024 · The most famous of the German ciphers broken at Bletchley was the Enigma, a complex electro-mechanical encryption machine used widely by the German armed forces. The Poles had achieved the first breaks into Enigma in the 1930s and shared their techniques with the British on the eve of the war.
