The Advanced Encryption Standard, originally named Rijndael, is a specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology in 2001. It was developed by the Belgian cryptographers Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, whose Rijndael proposal was selected by NIST after a five-year public standardization competition, and it became effective as a United States federal government standard, FIPS PUB 197, on May 26, 2002.

The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known by its original name Rijndael, is a specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2001.
Body, history
The cipher was developed by two Belgian cryptographers: Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, who submitted their Rijndael proposal during the AES selection process.
