AES Convention
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a widely used method for securing digital data. It transforms information into a coded format that only authorized parties can decode, ensuring privacy and protection from unauthorized access. AES uses a series of complex mathematical operations called a "cipher" with a secret key, making it extremely difficult for hackers to break the code. The standard was established by the U.S. government and adopted worldwide, providing a reliable way to protect sensitive information in everything from online banking to government communications.
