About this video

Historians believe that the breaking of the Enigma shortened the war by about two years, saving millions of lives. Despite this enormous contribution, the story of Enigma's decryption remained classified for decades and was only fully revealed to the public in the 1970s.

In summary, the Enigma code was broken thanks to the early work of Polish cryptographers and the later efforts of British scientists like Alan Turing. Their work significantly impacted the war, helping the Allies gain a crucial intelligence advantage.
