Banburismus was a cryptanalytic process developed by Alan Turing at Bletchley Park in Britain during the Second World War. [1] It was used by Bletchley Park's Hut 8 to help break German Kriegsmarine (naval) messages enciphered on Enigma machines.
Turing, a key figure at second world war code breaking facility Bletchley Park, picked from an illustrious list of nominees including Paul Dirac, Ada Lovelace, Stephen Hawking, and Ernest Rutherford.
The Enigma machines combined multiple levels of movable rotors and plug cables to produce a particularly complex polyalphabetic substitution cipher.. During World War I, inventors in several countries realised that a purely random key sequence, containing no repetitive pattern, would, in principle, make a polyalphabetic substitution cipher unbreakable.
