Women cryptanalysts at MI1(b)
text:
MI1(b) was a department of British Military Intelligence set up during World War I for the interception and cryptanalysis of coded messages. Unlike its equivalent in the Admiralty, Room 40, where women were employed in clerical roles, MI1(b) employed women as linguists, translators, and cryptanalysts. By 1919, a third of MI1(b)’s civilian cryptanalysts and linguists were women. Most of MI1(b)'s female codebreakers are known to have been university-educated, and several came from teaching backgro
