About this eBook
Code Breaking explores the fascinating history and strategic importance of deciphering secret communications, from ancient methods to modern cybersecurity. This interdisciplinary study reveals how cryptography and cryptanalysis have shaped military power and international relations. Did you know that code breaking existed long before computers? The book examines early methods of cryptography and cryptanalysis, providing context for understanding the quantum leaps made during and after World War II, including Allied efforts at Bletchley Park and the Enigma machine.
The book progresses chronologically, starting with fundamental concepts and moving through key historical episodes like the Zimmerman Telegram and the breaking of Japanese codes during World War II. A significant portion is dedicated to modern cybersecurity, including encryption algorithms and network security protocols. By balancing technical explanations with historical accounts and strategic implications, Code Breaking offers a comprehensive understanding of this critical field.
