This project is a Python-based application that provides AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption and decryption for files. The application offers a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) built with Tkinter, enabling users to easily encrypt and decrypt files. The AES algorithm ensures secure encryption, protecting sensitive data with 128-bit keys.
- AES File Encryption: Securely encrypt files using a provided or randomly generated AES key.
- AES File Decryption: Decrypt previously encrypted files using the corresponding AES key.
- Key Generation: Automatically generate a random 16-byte AES key for encryption.
- File Handling: Choose files from the system to encrypt or decrypt through the GUI.
- User-Friendly Interface: A simple and intuitive interface that makes encryption and decryption operations easy to perform.
To run this application, ensure Python is installed on your system. Clone this repository and install the required packages:
pip install -r requirements.txt- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Ressal0/AES-file-Encryption-Decryption.git
cd AES-file-Encryption-Decryption- Run the application:
python aes-file-encryption2.0v.py- Use the GUI to:
- Select a file for encryption or decryption.
- Generate an AES key or use a provided key.
- Encrypt the selected file or decrypt it back to its original form.
aes-file-encryption2.0v.py: Contains the AES encryption and decryption functionality, including key generation. And it Manages the graphical user interface and user interactions.requirements.txt: Lists all required dependencies to run the project.
tkinter: Used for the graphical interface.os: For file and key management.pycryptodome: Provides cryptographic functions, including AES (install viapip install pycryptodome).
This project was developed as part of a cybersecurity assignment focused on encryption and decryption methods using Python.
