Etech has implemented AES symmetric-key algorithm and is the same key used for both encrypting and decrypting the data.
Advanced Encryption Standard(AES) is a symmetric-key algorithm, meaning the same key is used for both encrypting and decrypting the data.AES is based on a design principle known as a substitution-permutation network, combination of both substitution and permutation, and is fast in both software and hardware .Unlike its predecessor DES, AES does not use a Feistel network.
