The algorithm uses one of three cipher key strengths: a 128-, 192-, or 256-bit encryption key. Each encryption-key size causes the algorithm to behave slightly differently. So, the increasing key ...

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a widely adopted and symmetric encryption algorithm standard used while securing data.

AES Encryption stands for Advanced Encryption Standard (also known as Rijndael) and follows a symmetric encryption algorithm, i.e., the same key is used to encrypt and decrypt the data.

ASC X9 has released a new standard, X9.24-3, that allows the use of the AES DUKPT algorithm to enhance security in retail financial transactions.

Researchers have found a weakness in the AES algorithm used worldwide to protect internet banking, wireless communications, and data on hard disks. They managed to come up with a clever new attack ...

Whitfield Diffie, who many consider the father of cryptography and who has an algorithm named after him, said the last year was a turning point for encryption.

The US Government's official encryption algorithm is Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Bruce Schneier's Blowfish algorithm is popular with the security cognoscenti.

Charanjit Jutla, a researcher at IBM, apparently invented an algorithm capable of performing both encryption and authentication functions in one, simultaneous step. IBM says the technology takes ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology proposes the Rijndael algorithm as the Advanced Encryption Standard.
