When a plaintext letter is pressed on the keyboard, the pressed key triggers an electric current which goes through the rotated components of the Enigma Machine.

The accompanying information (and text/images) in this portal has been derived from the following sources: This project used py-enigma 0.1 to simulate the enigma emulator.
Brian Neal for providing py-enigma 0.1 Library. This emulator was designed and implemented by Leelar Thaophialuang as part of his final year project in the School of Computer Science and Engineering at NTU Singapore.Ģ. The last tab provides the actual emulator (works on Firefox & Opera).ġ. Reference materials for further reading can be found in the acknowledgement section. The emulator only simulates the three rotor Enigma M3 (Army Navy). This enigma emulator has been developed by Leelar Thaophialuang as part of a set of demonstrators of basic cryptography techniques created in the School of Computer Science and Engineering at NTU Singapore under Anwitaman Datta's initiative, and captures the functionality and complexity of the Enigma machine. Breaking Enigma was a very important breakthrough that supported the Allied forces' war efforts, without which the outcome of the war and the world we live in today might have been quite different. Poor configuration and usage of the machine also facilitated the cryptanalysis. British scientist Alan Turing, leveraging on earlier breakthrough by three Polish military intelligence cryptanalysts Marian Rejewski, Jerzy Różycki and Henryk Zygalski, led the effort to break the cipher. Enigma machines were widely used by Nazi Germany during the World War 2.

The Enigma machines were a series of electromechanical rotor ciphers based on a German engineer, Arthur Scherbius's invention. Image sources:, ,, Brief history of the Enigma machine
