Rijndael
AES Cipher
Description:
This name is reserved for the cipher that wins the NIST AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) contest. Its original name will be retained as an alias. If there is more than one winning algorithm, each winner will retain its original name, and this entry will be removed.
Aliases:
"AES128", "AES192", "AES256", "OpenPGP.Cipher.7", "OpenPGP.Cipher.8", "OpenPGP.Cipher.9"

- Key length: 128, 192 or 256 bits. Other lengths may also be supported. The default key length for AES depends on the KeyGenerator name; see the section on KeyGenerators.
- Block size: 16 bytes. Other sizes may also be supported.
Patent status:
The AES winner will be available on a wordwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free basis, regardless of any patents.
Missing information:
Which algorithm will win ;-)
