Enigma is an encoding engine used to encrypt and decrypt secret messages. Enigma was patented by German engineer Arthur Scherbius, and was originally used for commercial purposes, but was later renowned for being used by Nazi German army and government before and during World War II. Technically, Enigma machines include the family of electromechanical rotor machines, which have various models. The name Enigma is derived from the Latin aenigma, which means a puzzle.
