Took a particular interest in these enciphered teleprinter messages. Lorenz, were first heard in early 1940 by a group of policemen on the SouthĬoast who were listening out for possible German spy transmissions fromīrigadier John Tiltman, one of the top codebreakers in Bletchley Park, The teleprinter signals being transmitted by the Germans, and enciphered using Had been breaking the Lorenz cipher for two and a half years. Never saw an actual Lorenz machine until right at the end of the war but they

The amazing thing about Lorenz is that the code breakers in Bletchley Park Was more "pseudo" than random and that was how it was broken. Generate a completely random sequence of characters. That it would be operationally easier to construct a machine to generate the They were both set to the same start position.

The difficulty was how to ensure, in a hot war situation, that the same randomĬharacter tapes were available at each end of a communications link and that System (a 'one-time pad system') using purely random obscuring characters is unbreakable.
Random and pre-punched on to paper tape to be consumed character byĬharacter in synchrony with the input message characters. Vernam proposed that the obscuring characters should be completely You can also see from this table that the addition of C to F brings you back to A again: If A is the plain-text character, and C the obscuring character, then in the table below, F is the cipher-text character. The working of modulo-2 addition is exactly the same as the XOR operation in logic. Then exactly the same obscuringĬharacters, added also by modulo-2 addtion to the received enciphered characters, wouldĬancel out the obscuring characters and leave the original message Special way (known as modulo-2 addition). Vernam's system lay in the fact that the obscuring characters were added in a rather The Vernam system enciphered the message text by adding to it, characterīy character, a set of obscuring characters thus producing the encipheredĬharacters which were transmitted to the intended recipient. Note that the Baudot code output consists of five channels each of which is a stream of bits which can be represented as no-hole or hole, 0 or 1, dot or cross. Teleprinters use the 32-symbol Baudot code. Teleprinters are not based on the 26-letter alphabet and Morse code on which the Enigma depended.
