The team of cryptologists at Bletchley Park, led by Alan Turing.
The first computer was used in the decoding of German Enigma machine codes. Blexsley Hall, England,1943
The British personnel of HMS Bulldog captured the Enigma Machine from the U-110 in the North Atlantic on May 9th 1941 long before the United States entered the war. Poland was the first to decipher the code,and showed the British how to decipher it. In the film U-571 it was all fictitious. The U-571 was never involved in any such events.

The apple logo was first started with the enigma code. The man who invented the first computer to crack the code, was kicked out because he was a homosexual, he got so depressed that he injected an apple with potassium cyanide and took a bite out of it. now people show their respect for him and apple inc has used that story for their symbol.
The first computers developed by British intelligence at Bletchley Park were designed to break the German Enigma codes.
The Enigma was the Germans' and the Ultra was the British machine. Then the British from HMS Bulldog were the first to capture the Enigma Machine from the U-110 in the North Atlantic on May 9th 1941. Then Poland helped the British to decipher the code.
Arthur Scherbius invented the Enigma machine, filing his first patent in 1918. Its original intended use was for secure business communication.In the late 1920s the German military ordered two differently modified versions of Enigma machines for the Navy and Army that were intended to be more secure than the standard commercial Enigma machines.
The first computer was called an enigma machine. It was made by the military for beaking enemy codes.
The code making machine was German and it was called "Enigma". The British managed to crack how this worked and in the end built the first ever digital, electronic computer to help unscramble the German war messages. This computer was called "Colossus".

The Allies became aware of the Enigma machine through various intelligence efforts, including the work of Polish cryptanalysts in the early 1930s who first broke its codes. After the German invasion of Poland in 1939, the Polish intelligence shared their findings and the machine itself with British and French officials. This collaboration laid the groundwork for the British codebreakers at Bletchley Park, who further developed techniques to decipher Enigma-encrypted communications throughout World War II.
Polish cryptanalysts working in Warsaw, Poland first broke the German Army Enigma and built a simple electromechanical Bombe machine in spring of 1939. However when the Germans invaded on September 1, 1939 they had to flee Poland. Initially going to France, but when France was invaded in 1940 the Polish cryptanalysts went to England. There they became part of the team at Bletchley Park. The British team at Bletchley Park had been stymied by Enigma until the Poles arrived, bringing with them a stolen German Army Enigma machine (which answered several questions the British had). Bletchley Park eventually designed larger more advanced and powerful Bombe machines which they used throughout the war to read Enigma messages. Several times the Germans made improvements to the Enigma (especially the Navy Enigma) forcing the British to have to break the cypher again, sometimes even involving capturing another Enigma machine to see what those changes were. The most difficult change to break was the addition of a 4th rotor to the Navy Enigma, which could only be handled by the addition of a high speed vacuum tube electronic box to the side of the electromechanical Bombe machine.
Poland was the first country to successfully break the Enigma code in the early 1930s. Polish mathematicians, including Marian Rejewski, developed techniques and tools to decipher the encrypted messages generated by the Enigma machine. Their work laid the groundwork for later efforts by British cryptanalysts at Bletchley Park during World War II.
The first code-breaking machine was called The Bombe because it was designed to "detonate" or break the Enigma cipher used by the Nazis during World War II. Developed by Alan Turing and his team at Bletchley Park, the name reflects its function of processing complex permutations to reveal encrypted messages, much like a bomb exploding to expose its contents. The machine's innovative design allowed it to analyze multiple Enigma settings rapidly, significantly aiding Allied intelligence efforts.
Enigma was used for war. Enigma was first invented by German engineer in World War 1.
