Image Encryption based on Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)

With the rapid advancement of electronic and digital data transmission and sharing, information security, user privacy, and confidentiality are paramount in the data storage and transmission field. On account of the predominant application of images in industrial tasks, and military, it is highly crucial to protect private data of the format image against all fraudulent and unauthorized access. This article brings the proposal of a Java Based Software to encrypt images in all formats using the AES Rijndael Algorithm. Optimized and synthesizable Java code with Graphical User Interface using Swing is developed to implement 128-bit data and process the encryption.
