  Joseph Mauborgne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the history of cryptography, Joseph Oswald Mauborgne ( 1881 – 1971) co-invented the one-time pad with Gilbert Vernam of Bell Labs.
Mauborgne became a Major General in the United States Army, and in the period before Pearl Harbor was the Chief of the Signal Corps.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Mauborgne pursued communication advancements in numerous research-and-development assignments, including a stint as chief of the Signal Corps Engineering and Research Division and as commander of the Signal Corps laboratory in the Bureau of Standards.

The one-time pad (or Vernam cipher) is an information-theoretically secure cipher, and one of the simplest of all ciphers.
It was invented in 1917 and patented just after World War I by Gilbert Vernam (of AT&T) and Joseph Mauborgne ( USA, later chief of the Signal Corps).
The fundamental features of this cipher are that the sender and receiver each have a copy of an encryption key, which is as long as the message to be encrypted, and each key is used for only one message and then discarded.

 Trench code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was assigned to France in an administrative role, but his advice was eagerly sought by colleagues working in operational cryptology.
Another Signal Corps officer who would make his mark on cryptology was Joseph Mauborgne, who in 1914, as a first lieutenant, had been the first to publish a solution to the Playfair cipher.
When the Americans began moving up to the front in numbers in early 1918, they adopted trench codes and became very competent at their construction, with a Captain Howard R. Barnes eventually learning to produce them at a rate that surprised British colleagues.

A convenient and easily implemented combining function is the XOR operation.
Shortly thereafter, Joseph Mauborgne, at that time a Captain in the US Army Signal Corps, proposed, in addition, that the paper tape key contain random information.
The two ideas, when themselves combined, implement the one-time pad, though neither inventor used the name then.

These were teletype cypher machines in the spirit of that first proposed by Col Parker Hitt of the US Army around WWI.
The German machines were, essentially, attempts at an electromechanical implementations of the one-time pad cypher invented by Gilbert Vernam (Bell Labs) and Joseph Mauborgne (Signal Corps, USA) in the US at the end of WWI.
The most important was a teletype based machine built by Lorenz Electric, the SZ-40 (and later SZ-42) Schlusselzusatz (meaning, more or less, 'auxiliary key').

 Feature Article: Weekly Feature
In tackling the telegraphy problem, Gilbert Vernam at ATandT and Major Joseph O. Mauborgne, head of cryptographic research for the U.S. Army Signal Corps, hit upon a new kind of cipher.
Without any pattern to latch on to--such as the prevalence of the letter "e" in English texts--an eavesdropper is powerless to decipher the message.
This sequence can then be used to generate a sequence of numbers that is analogous to the letters on the one-time pad that Mauborgne used.

Officially adopted in 1922, it remained in use until 1943, replaced by more complex and secure electromechanical rotor machines, particularly the M-209.

According to Mauborgne's proposal, responsibility would be assigned according to hearability, frequency, time of day, type of transmission, and, in the case of duplication, preponderance of copy without regard for the underlying value of any intelligence to the intercepting agency.

In the 1940's a cipher developed in 1918 was proven to be unbreakable, and the only working one to be such until 70 years later.
Gilbert S. Vernam (ATandT) and Major Joseph O. Mauborgne (US Army Signal Corps) were responsible for the Vernam cipher, its distinctive feature being that a key as long as the message is required for transmission and is never reused to send another message.
Unfortunately, the Vernam cipher needs the sender and receiver to have agreed on a large number of random digits known only to each other, which would form the key.
