Pipelined AES 128 Encryption Module

The AES-128 pipelined cipher module uses AES algorithm which is a symmetric block cipher to encrypt (encipher) information. Encryption converts data to an unintelligible form called ciphertext .Here the AES algorithm is capable of using cryptographic keys of 128bit to do this conversion .This module is optimized for speed as it pipeline hardware to perform repeated sequence called round. This module synthesized on Xilinx virtex 6 6vcx240tff784-2 board using ISE. Fuctional and gate level simulation were done using AES validation suite (AESVS) vectors
