Cryptography is a well known data security algorithm which is used till date. Cryptography is a science of converting message into unrecognizable form and provides resistance for stealing the information. Advanced encryption standard is a highly secure algorithm is widely used in network security and communication. The most commonly used encryption standard is AES. Even though this is the standard algorithm, hackers are able to break the algorithm and retrieving the hidden data. There are mainly four steps in AES, which include add-round key, sub-bytes, shift-rows, mix-columns. This paper mainly concentrates on mix-columns. Thus, we intend to develop highly secure encryption algorithm that combines AES with another form of encryption known as visual cryptography. And also perform multiplications involved in AES, vedic mathematics approach will be incorporated to increase the algorithm’s efficiency with respect to area. The analysis and simulation is done using MATLAB, modelsim tools. This method of implementing AES using vedic-mathematics improves the performance in terms of speed, power and area.
