I believe none of the AES algorithms have been compromised so far. DES is
known to be broken, 3DES was just severely compromised. I don't know where
blowfish stands at the moment.

 Hello Everyone,
  Hope you all are doing great.
  Now we are creating a application which has high level
 of security so its obvious that we will require a algorithm for
 encryption/decrytpion.So Can anybody suggest me the best algorithm for
 encryption(irrespective of any languageJust a Algorithm).

This link [1] should explain the algorithm to a point, as well as work
as a good place to jump off from and investigate other algorithm
choices. Below the main article, there is also a list of PHP
implementations (as well as additional languages).

As for Blowfish--if you're going down that road, I would recommend its
successor, Twofish [2].

Another camper on the AES / Rijndael bandwagon.  I don't think there's even
been a theoretical attack point for anything 128 bit, but I could be wrong.

And re: sha1, sha1 isn't an encryption algorithm...

A single-phase Caesar cypher is by far the best. It worked for Julias
Caesar, and damn it, it will work for us!

I was once working with a very problematic partner that kept changing data
in our database, so I rot13d all the data and told him it was some advanced
encryption and he never worked it out :)
