Cryptanalytic

“Venona” was the fanciful code word assigned to the highly classified government project, which began in 1943 and was formally closed in 1980, in order to limit access to the cryptanalytic breakthrough that finally made it possible to crack the Russian secret code. ❋ Jennet Conant (2011)

The agency released the enciphered text, and a frenzy erupted in the crypto world as some of the best-and wackiest-cryptanalytic talent set to work. ❋ Unknown (2009)

This process is likely to result in all sorts of new research results in hash function security, and some real cryptanalytic surprises. ❋ Unknown (2008)

First, there was a decisive shift in the cryptanalytic balance; the Allies thoroughly broke the new U-boat codes, while at the same time they successfully closed off their own convoy ciphers to the Germans. ❋ Daniel Yergin (2008)

Recently, though, there have been some pretty impressive cryptanalytic attacks against the algorithm. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Second, Colossus was not a general-purpose machine, being designed for a specific cryptanalytic task involving counting and Boolean operations. ❋ Copeland, B. Jack (2006)

In fact, spying played very little role in the Anglo-American war with Germany (though no doubt it was more significant in relations with the Soviet Union): cryptanalytic intelligence, obtained through scientific ingenuity and organisation, was all-important. ❋ Unknown (2002)

He wrote that it consumed many thousands of valuable hours of cryptanalytic effort with no intelligence return. ❋ ROBERT B. STINNETT (2001)

In his first policy memorandum to the committee on the matter, dated August 28, 1945, President Truman curtailed presentation of evidence concerning the success of any US governmental cryptanalytic unit. ❋ ROBERT B. STINNETT (2001)

He discusses early data processing and cryptanalytic equipment before focusing on the development of computers following World War II. ❋ Unknown (1989)

He recounts how war-time work on cryptanalytic equipment took all the company's effort, and how this shaped company policy resisting government contract work after the war. ❋ Unknown (1984)
