The AES encryption consists of applying the following transformations: AddRoundKey - > SubBytes - > ShiftRows - > MixColumns - > AddRoundKey - > SubBytes

The AES encryption consists of applying the following transformations: AddRoundKey -> SubBytes -> ShiftRows -> MixColumns -> AddRoundKey -> SubBytes ->, while the decryption process applies the transformations: AddRoundKey -> ShiftRows1-> SubBytes1-> AddRoundKey -> MixColumns1-> ShiftRows1->
a) Explain why the order of ShiftRows1 and SubBytes1 can be interchanged.
b) Both MixColumns and its inverse MixColumns1 are linear transformations on the block of bytes. Explain how you can interchange the order of MixColumns1 and AddRoundKey in the encryption process. (A modification in the round key is needed).
c) Using the previous points, show that the decryption of AES can be done in the following way: AddRoundKey -> SubBytes1-> ShiftRows1-> MixColumns1-> AddRoundKey -> Note that the order of the steps corresponds to the order in the encryption process.
