BOB 2022 Ju Liu - Enigma in Elm
Channel: BOB
Date: 2022-10-06

The Enigma machine was an encryption device that was used by German forces during WW2 to send secret messages. In this talk, we will explain exactly how the encryption process works and go through an implementation of it in Elm. We will demonstrate how to encrypt and decrypt a message. Then we will go over the weaknesses that made it exploitable by Alan Turing and the other fine folks in Bletchley Park. By the end of the talk, you’ll be able to point out all the inaccuracies in “The Imitation Game”.
