About This Website Deze pagina in the Nederlands


Home








I have a broad interest in all aspects of technology, science and history, but especially in electronics, cryptology and programming. I also have a special interest in classical cryptology, old cipher machines and the world of Signals Intelligence, both technically and historically, and in WW2 and Cold War history.

In 2004, I decided to share my passion for cryptology and old cipher machines by creating this website and a weblog. My goal is to get people interested in the intriguing world of cryptography and code breaking, and to show how a seemingly boring subject can be a truly fascinating journey into history. I hope to inspire the reader to look beyond the well-known WW2 and Cold War stories and discover the importance of intelligence work, and how it influenced history.
