Abstract
This study inspects the importance and role of the code in enhancing the intelligence security of the Algerian Liberation Revolution (1957-1962), our paper focused on the analysis of the historical background of the emergence of the Code Authority and its development within the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Establishment of the Ministry of Information, highlighting its contribution to maintaining the secrecy of internal and external communications of the ELN. By monitoring the development of the technical and organizational structure in favor of the code, it was found that the Algerian revolution paid increasing attention to this vital area, despite the lack of potential. The study also showed how the code became a strategic tool and one of the most important interests of the Anti-Establishment Directorate of the Ministry of Information and Intelligence. The results of the research confirm that the code was not only a technical tool but an effective defense intelligence tool, which contributed to aborting enemy penetrations and enhancing the security of the revolution. .
