so i recently starting doing the de-ice live cd's and i had gotten stuck when i found the file i needed because it was encrypted. When i started looking on the internet and found a video and he used the command

openssl enc -d -aes-128-cbc

and so what i have gathered from research is that the AES is a type of encryption correct? Also that the 128 in the command means that it is 128 bit but other than that i have found nothing else useful so my question is how did he know what type of encryption it was and just how he knew what to do exactly.

thanks,
