AES Encryption

The AES encryption standard is a cryptographically secure and widely supported symmetric key, stream encryption scheme. It takes a strong key and applies it to an input in a series of "rounds" to a 16-byte chunk of data (the state). The resulting cipher is so thoroughly different from the original that it is considered cryptographically secure. Indeed, there are as yet no reported cases of AES encryption being successfully broken except through side channel attacks, essentially using other available data or means to get at the original (not a fault of the algorithm itself).

For more information regarding the algorithm you may view the Wikipedia page.
