Description
One of the first true difficult cryptanalysis and hacking examples was the enigma machine. In this assignment, you will encrypt your own crafted message utilizing the tools featured in Chapter 3 of the text.
For this assignment, you will:

Encrypt the following message: Cypher codes are fun.
Change the Umkehrwalze, Walzenlage, Ringstellung, and Grundstellung, and input your text letter.
Record all the settings.
Repeat this process three times.
Upon completion of your encryption exercise, read through the following related summary “How Enigma Machines Work.”
To summarize your encryption experience, write a short paper discussing how cypher text machines work and approximately how long it would take to break your code using a standard brute force method.
