About The Project

SecureChat is a simple cryptography project in which messages are encrypted using AES. AES is an iterative rather than Feistel cipher. It is based on ‘substitution–permutation network’. It comprises of a series of linked operations, some of which involve replacing inputs by specific outputs (substitutions) and others involve shuffling bits around (permutations).

AES performs all its computations on bytes rather than bits. Hence, AES treats the 128 bits of a plaintext block as 16 bytes. These 16 bytes are arranged in four columns and four rows for processing as a matrix −

The features of AES are as follows −

• Symmetric key symmetric block cipher
• 128-bit data, 128/192/256-bit keys
• Stronger and faster than Triple-DES
• Provide full specification and design details
• Software implementable in C and Java
