What is the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)? Why do governments and businesses use AES? How strong is AES encryption? All about it — in this video.

In 2001, the National Institute of Standards and Technology established AES as an encryption standard. AES has become very popular among governments, businesses, and cybersecurity experts because it’s incredibly secure and efficient. Even the NSA used it to secure confidential data.

No known attack can break the AES 266-bit encryption. If a cybercriminal had a supercomputer, they’d still need billions of years to break AES and extract your private messages and (possibly) cat photos.

AES is already used on SSL websites, meaning a VPN won’t do anymore than encrypt that encryption.
