The Cipher Bureau, known as "Biuro Szyfrów" in Polish, was a secret organization responsible for cryptography and intelligence in Poland during the interwar period. Established in the early 1920s, it played a crucial role in decrypting enemy communications, particularly those of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. The Bureau became particularly well-known for its success in breaking the Enigma machine cipher, which was used by the German military.
