between the plain text and key
1. Purpose: AES is a way to securely encrypt data, meaning it transforms readable information
(plaintext) into unreadable information (ciphertext) so that only authorized users can read it.
2. Block Size: AES works with fixed-size blocks of data, specifically 128 bits (or 16 bytes) at a
time.
o 128 bits
o 192 bits
o 256 bits
1. Key Expansion: The encryption key is expanded into multiple round keys, which will be used
in various steps throughout the process.
2. Initial Round:
o AddRoundKey: The first step combines the plaintext with the first round key using a
bitwise XOR operation.
o SubBytes: Each byte of the state (the data being processed) is replaced with another
byte using a substitution table (S-box).
o ShiftRows: The rows of the state are shifted to the left by varying amounts.
o MixColumns: The columns of the state are mixed together to enhance diffusion
(spreading the data).
o AddRoundKey: The current state is combined with the next round key.
4. Final Round: The last round is similar, but it skips the MixColumns step. It consists of:
o SubBytes
o ShiftRows
o AddRoundKey
Result
After all the rounds are complete, the final output is the ciphertext, which is a scrambled version of
the original plaintext. Only someone with the correct key can reverse the process to get back the
original data.
Decryption
Decryption in AES is the reverse of encryption. It uses the same steps but in the opposite order and
with the round keys applied in reverse.
Summary
In simple terms, AES is like a secure lock that transforms your data into a form that can’t be easily
read by anyone without the right key. It ensures that your sensitive information stays safe from
unauthorized acces
mam in the function (F) the output of sbox 1 and s box 2 will be added and the resulting output will
be xor with the output of Sbox 3 . at last the output of this xoer operation will be added with the
output of sbox 4 which will finally give us the 32 bits output(y).
You missed how to initialize the the p-array and Elements of S-box in the first place. We have to
initialize the them by the fractional part of pi (π) in hexadecimal number system.
DOUBT:Sister if 8 bit is xored with 8 bit then result would be of length 8 but.. After performing for
operations 3 times on total 32 bits which divided into 4 8 bits the result would be of 8 bit length. Am
