A Stick Figure Guide To The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)

This document is a stick figure guide to the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) presented as a play in 4 acts. It uses simple illustrations and explanations to outline the key steps of the AES encryption process, including how plaintext is encrypted into ciphertext using encryption rounds and decryption rounds that involve substituting bytes and shuffling them around. The goal is to make the inner workings of AES accessible to non-experts through an entertaining visualized format.
