At all times people have wished to have the possibility to communicate in secrecy so as to allow nobody to overhear their messages. A new AES-like cipher, key-dependent Advanced Encryption Standard algorithm, KAES is proposed, to vanish any suspicion of a trapdoor being built into the cipher and to expand the key-space to strength it against known attacks. The cipher structure resembles the AES approved by National Institute for Standardization and Technology, NIST, providing the necessary confusion and diffusion.
