Advanced Encryption Standard

In 1997 NIST requested proposals for a new advanced encryption standard. Three years later they officially announced that Rijndael was selected as the AES as can be seen in FIPS-197. It is expected to be the standard for approximately 20-30 years, unless an exploit is published before then.
