Data encryption is essential for protecting data from unauthorized access. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), among many encryption algorithms, is the most popular algorithm currently employed to secure static and dynamic data. There are several modes of AES operation. Each of these modes defines a unique way to perform data encryption. XTS mode is the latest mode developed to protect data stored in hard-disk-like sector-based storage devices.

A recent increase in the rate of data breaches has triggered the necessity to encrypt stored data as well. AES encryption, however, is a complex process. As it involves a lot of computations, …
