Abstract
SIGABA is a World War II cipher machine used by the United States. Both the United States Army and the United States Navy used it for tactical communication. In this paper, we consider an attack on SIGABA using the largest practical keyspace for the machine. This attack will highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the machine, as well as provide an insight into the strength of the security provided by the cipher.
