2025 lecture season continues on Wednesday 25th June
Knowing what your adversary is doing is of inestimable value – whether you’re in conflict or not. So, the ability to read their minds gives you a huge advantage. While Ultra initially was the cryptonym for the project to break the German Enigma machine, the code name came to represent all British efforts to break high-level German radio codes during World War II. This presentation by MAVC's very own Simon Kemp examines how we managed to get maximum value from the decrypted messages and what lessons had to be learned along the way.
