# Private Key Storing

While users generate new wallets using Lootbot, their private keys are stored in an encrypted format using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to prevent unauthorized access.&#x20;

Within LootBot, AES operates on fixed-size blocks of data and uses a secret key for both encryption and decryption.

Details about our AES is well explained in this [X thread](https://twitter.com/lootbot_xyz/status/1680875427857047553?s=20).<br>
