Sir John Dermot Turing, 12th Baronet (born 26 February 1961[1]) is a British solicitor and author.[2] Dermot Turing was educated at Sherborne School and King’s College, Cambridge. He then undertook a DPhil degree in genetics at New College, Oxford, before moving into the legal profession.[3] He first worked in the Department of the HM Treasury Solicitor. He then worked at the international law firm Clifford Chance, where he was a partner until 2014 and latterly a consultant.[4] He specialized in the financial sector, especially with respect to failed banks, regulation, and risk management. Turing is the nephew of Alan Turing (1912–1954).[2][5][6] In 2012, the centenary year of Alan Turing's birth, Dermot Turing became a trustee of Bletchley Park, where Alan Turing worked as a cryptologist during World War II.[3] In 2015 he wrote a book on Alan Turing, Prof: Alan Turing Decoded,[7] and in 2017 he contributed a chapter to The Turing Guide.[8] He is a member of the European Post-Trade Forum and a trustee of the Turing Trust.

Everyone knows the story of Enigma and secret codebreaking in the Second World War: the triumph of Bletchley Park over world-class cipher technology. Except that excellence in codebreaking was nearly betrayed by incompetence in codemaking.
German codebreakers were effective and Allied codes and ciphers were weak. With both sides reading each other's codes, the biggest secret of all – that the codes had been broken – was now at risk. Sooner or later, on one side or the other, the cipher failures would become known, the systems would be changed and the most valuable source of intelligence would dry up.
Were it not for obstinacy, overconfidence and ostrichism. On both sides. The Germans demanded that the traitors be rooted out; the British stifled cipher questions beneath a tangle of committees. The codebreakers' contest became a struggle to lose the cipher war.
From the very outset, the Enigma secret was one of treachery, betrayal and deception. This is the story of the people who fought behind the scenes for cipher security – and of the Enigma traitors.
