AES uses the Rijndael algorithm, officially replacing the Triple DES Method. AES encryption can be done in one pass instead of three and its key size is greater than Triple Desís 168 bits. One of two privacy encryption protocols, AES is a stronger form of encryption than DES see also “Data Encryption Standard”.
