AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a type of symmetric–key encryption algorithm that was developed by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It is used to protect sensitive information by encrypting data using a combination of substitution and transposition. The encryption key is derived from a password or passphrase, which is then combined with a random string of characters called a salt. AES is considered one of the most secure encryption algorithms available today and is used by many government organizations, financial institutions, and companies to protect data.
