Rijndael can use different block sizes, but AES uses a fixed block size of 128-bits. So for AES, the block size must always be 128-bits!!! Key Size Block Size 128 128 192 128 256 128 Basic Information for Rijndael Official NIST standard Won first place out of 15 other AES contestants Pronounced “Rhine Dall” Named after its developers Vincent Rijmen and Joan Daemen Rijndael is the actual name of the algorithm, AES is the standard Symmetric block cipher Proved to have the best
