Were can i get a set of the most popular algorithims from for encryption, and does any one have and info on the algorithim used in the second WW by the germans, (The Enigma system) any info would be greatfully recieved Cheers John
For information on Enigma try "APPLIED CRYPTOGRAPHY" by Bruce Schneier page 11 and 364. Page 11 gives a brief summary of it and provides some info and other material covering it. Page 364 does the same. In case you do not have access to the book ( which of course is a sin ) here are some of the references. "THE CODEBREAKERS" by D. Kahn 1983 "CRYPTANALYSIS of the HAGLEN CRYPTOGRAPH" by W.G. Barker 1977 "THE BLACK CHAMBER: A COLUMN; HOW THE BRITISH BROKE ENIGMA" by C.A. Deavours Crptologia, v.4,n.3,Jul 1980,pp 129-132
