| |
| In [[cryptography]], '''SIGSALY''' (also known as the '''X System''', '''Project X''', '''Ciphony I''', and the '''Green Hornet''') was a [[secure voice|secure speech]] system used in [[World War II]] for the highest-level [[Allies of World War II|Allied]] communications.
| |
| | |
| It pioneered a number of [[digital communications]] concepts, including the first transmission of speech using [[pulse-code modulation]].
| |
| | |
| The name SIGSALY was not an acronym, but a cover name that resembled an acronym—the SIG part was common in Army Signal Corps names (e.g., [[SIGABA]]). The prototype was called the "Green Hornet" after the popular radio show ''[[The Green Hornet]]'', because it sounded like a buzzing [[hornet]] — resembling the show's theme tune — to anyone trying to eavesdrop on the conversation.
| |
| | |
| ==Development==
| |
| At the time of its inception, long distance telephone communications were broadcast using the "A-3" voice scrambler developed by [[AT&T Corporation]]. The Germans had a listening station on the Dutch coast which could intercept and break A-3 traffic.<ref name="autogenerated1">[http://www.nsa.gov/about/cryptologic_heritage/center_crypt_history/publications/sigsaly_story.shtml The SIGSALY Story], by Patrick D. Weadon, National Security Agency/Central Security Service</ref>
| |
| | |
| Although telephone [[scrambler]]s were used by both sides in World War II, they were known not to be very secure in general, and both sides often cracked the scrambled conversations of the other. Inspection of the audio spectrum using a [[spectrum analyzer]] often provided significant clues to the scrambling technique. The insecurity of most telephone scrambler schemes led to the development of a more secure scrambler, based on the [[one-time pad]] principle.
| |
| | |
| A prototype was developed at [[Bell Labs|Bell Telephone Laboratories]], better known as "Bell Labs", under the direction of A. B. Clark, assisted by British mathematician [[Alan Turing]] (see external link 1, below),<ref>{{cite web|title=Turing's achievements: codebreaking, AI and the birth of computer science|url=http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2012-06/18/turing-contributions?page=all|accessdate=12 February 2013|author=Liat Clark|coauthors=Ian Steadman}}</ref> and demonstrated to the US Army. The Army was impressed and awarded Bell Labs a contract for two systems in 1942. SIGSALY went into service in 1943 and remained in service until 1946.
| |
| | |
| ==Operation==
| |
| SIGSALY used a [[randomness|random]] [[noise]] mask to [[encryption|encrypt]] voice conversations which had been encoded by a [[vocoder]]. The latter was used both to minimize the amount of redundancy (which is high in voice traffic), and also to reduce the amount of information to be encrypted.
| |
| | |
| The voice conversation was first encoded by the vocoder as:
| |
| * ten narrow-band (less than 25 [[Hertz|Hz]]) signals, giving the [[amplitude]] in ten separate frequency bands, which together covered the telephone passband (250 Hz - 2,950 Hz);
| |
| * another signal indicating whether the sound is [[phonation|voiced]] or [[phonation|unvoiced]];
| |
| * if voiced, a signal indicating the [[pitch (music)|pitch]]; this also varied at less than 25 Hz.
| |
| | |
| Next, each signal was [[sample (signal)|sample]]d for its amplitude once every 20 milliseconds. For the band amplitude signals, the amplitude converted into one of six amplitude levels, with values from 0 through 5. The amplitude levels were on a nonlinear scale, with the steps between levels wide at low amplitudes and narrower at high amplitudes. This scheme, known as "companding" or "compressing-expanding", exploits the fact that the fidelity of voice signals is more sensitive to high amplitudes than to low amplitudes. The pitch signal, which required greater sensitivity, was encoded by a pair of six-level values (one coarse, and one fine), giving thirty-six levels in all.
| |
| | |
| A [[Key (cryptography)|cryptographic key]], consisting of a series of random values from the same set of six levels, was subtracted from each sampled voice amplitude value to encrypt them before transmission. The subtraction was performed using [[modular arithmetic]]: a "wraparound" fashion, meaning that if there was a negative result, it was added to six to give a positive result. For example, if the voice amplitude value was 3 and the random value was 5, then the subtraction would work as follows:
| |
| | |
| :<math>3 - 5 \equiv -2,\ -2 + 6 \equiv 4\pmod 6 \,</math>
| |
| | |
| — giving a value of 4.
| |
| | |
| The sampled value was then transmitted, with each sample level transmitted on one of six corresponding frequencies in a frequency band, a scheme known as "[[frequency-shift keying]] (FSK)". The receiving SIGSALY read the frequency values, converted them into samples, and added the key values back to them to decrypt them. The addition was also performed in a "modulo" fashion, with six subtracted from any value over five. To match the example above, if the receiving SIGSALY got a sample value of 4 with a matching random value of 5, then the addition would be as follows:
| |
| | |
| :<math>4 + 5 \equiv 9,\ 9 - 6 \equiv 3\pmod 6 \,</math>
| |
| | |
| — which gives the correct value of 3.
| |
| | |
| To convert the samples back into a voice waveform, they were first turned back into the dozen low-frequency vocoded signals. An inversion of the vocoder process was employed, which included:
| |
| * a [[white noise]] source (used for unvoiced sounds);
| |
| * a signal generator (used for voiced sounds) generating a set of [[harmonic]]s, with the base frequency controlled by the pitch signal;
| |
| * a switch, controlled by the voiced/unvoiced signal, to select one of these two as a source;
| |
| * a set of filters (one for each band), all taking as input the same source (the source selected by the switch), along with amplifiers whose [[gain]] was controlled by the band amplitude signals.
| |
| | |
| The noise values used for the encryption key were originally produced by large [[Mercury (element)|mercury]]-vapor rectifying [[vacuum tube]]s and stored on a [[phonograph]] record. The record was then duplicated, with the records being distributed to SIGSALY systems on both ends of a conversation. The records served as the SIGSALY "one-time pad", and distribution was very strictly controlled (although if one had been seized, it would have been of little importance, since only one pair of each was ever produced). For testing and setup purposes, a pseudo-random number generating system made out of relays, known as the "threshing machine", was used.
| |
| | |
| The records were played on [[phonograph|turntable]]s, but since the timing – the [[clock synchronization]] – between the two SIGSALY terminals had to be precise, the turntables were by no means just ordinary record-players. The rotation rate of the turntables was carefully controlled, and the records were started at highly specific times, based on precision time-of-day clock standards. Since each record only provided 12 minutes of [[key (cryptography)|key]], each SIGSALY had two turntables, with a second record "queued up" while the first was "playing".
| |
| | |
| ==Usage==
| |
| [[Image:SIGSALY-1943.jpg|thumbnail|A SIGSALY terminal in 1943.]]
| |
| | |
| The SIGSALY terminal was massive, consisting of 40 racks of equipment. It weighed over 50 tons, and used about 30 [[kilowatt|kW]] of power, necessitating an air-conditioned room to hold it. Too big and cumbersome for general use, it was only used for the highest level of voice communications.
| |
| | |
| A dozen SIGSALY terminal installations were eventually set up all over the world. The first was installed in the [[Pentagon building]] rather than the White House, which had an extension line, as President Roosevelt knew of British Prime Minister [[Winston Churchill]]'s insistence to call at any time of the day or night. The second was installed {{convert|60|m}} below street level in the SWOD basement of [[Selfridges, Oxford Street|Selfridges]] [[department store]] on [[Oxford Street]], [[London]], close to the [[Embassy of the United States, London|US Embassy]] on [[Grosvenor Square]]. The first conference took place on 15 July 1943, and it was used by both General [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]] as the commander of [[SHAEF]], and Churchill, before extensions were installed to the Embassy, [[10 Downing Street]] and the [[Cabinet War Rooms]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nsa.gov/about/cryptologic_heritage/center_crypt_history/publications/sigsaly_story.shtml|title=Sigsaly Story|author=Patrick D. Weadon|publisher=[[National Security Agency]]|accessdate=3 January 2012}}</ref> One was installed in a ship and followed General [[Douglas MacArthur]] during his [[Oceania|South Pacific]] campaigns. In total during WW2, the system supported about 3,000 high-level telephone conferences.
| |
| | |
| The installation and maintenance of all SIGSALY machines was undertaken by the specially formed and vetted members of the [[805th Signal Service Company]] of the [[US Army Signal Corps]]. The system was cumbersome, but it worked very effectively. When the Allies invaded Germany, an investigative team discovered that the Germans had recorded significant amounts of traffic from the system, but had erroneously concluded that it was a complex telegraphic encoding system.<ref name="autogenerated1"/>
| |
|
| |
| A recording of Churchill talking to Roosevelt is on display in the British Parliament Building. It is very interesting to hear since the timing of the recorded signal occasionally varies from that received. The spoken words were added to a very loud Beethoven recording which can occasionally be heard.
| |
| | |
| ==Significance==
| |
| SIGSALY has been credited with a number of "firsts"; this list is taken from (Bennett, 1983):
| |
| # The first realization of enciphered telephony
| |
| # The first quantized speech transmission
| |
| # The first transmission of speech by [[pulse code modulation]] (PCM)
| |
| # The first use of [[companding|companded]] PCM
| |
| # The first examples of multilevel [[frequency shift keying]] (FSK)
| |
| # The first useful realization of speech bandwidth compression
| |
| # The first use of FSK - FDM (Frequency Shift Keying-Frequency Division Multiplex) as a viable transmission method over a fading medium
| |
| # The first use of a multilevel "eye pattern" to adjust the sampling intervals (a new, and important, instrumentation technique)
| |
| | |
| ==In popular culture==
| |
| SIGSALY was featured in [[Neal Stephenson]]'s novel ''[[Cryptonomicon]]'', in a conversation between the fictional character Lawrence Waterhouse and the historical character Alan Turing.

Describes the two cryptographic systems (SIGSALY and SITGOT) used for high-level top secret conferencing during World War II by the General Staff in communicating with overseas theater commanders. Both were also used by high–level government officials such as the President and his cabinet for communications with their counterparts in other countries. SIGSALY provided totally secure telephone conferencing facilities. SIGTOT provided equally totally secure instantaneous teletype communications for conferencing and the transmission of top secret information. Descriptions of other widely used encryption systems are also included in the book such as the SIGABA and M-209. A description and comparison is made with German cryptographic systems such as the ENIGMA and Lorenz. This book is the definitive source on this form of communication. SIGSALY operated from July 1943 until mid-1946 when it closed down and all of the outlying terminals were returned to the Army Security Agency. The technology of SIGSALY remained a secret until 1976 when Bell Laboratories, who designed the system and held many patents to it, had it declassified under the Freedom of Information Act.
