A chaotic permutation and diffusion based image encryption algorithm for secure communications

In this digital era, a huge amount of digital data is being generated, transmitted, and stored over the network. Images are widely searched, shared and uploaded which make them more vulnerable to the attackers. Therefore, image encryption has become the most widespread form of secure image communication. In recent past, a range of chaotic encryption schemes have been proposed for image encryption which suffers from low key space and high computational overhead. In this paper, the authors have proposed a secure image encryption technique based on 2D Baker’s map. In the proposed scheme a plain image is permuted first, based on a sequence of pseudo random number generated by 2D Baker’s map followed by diffusion process based on XORing. The strength of the proposed scheme is analyzed using the most well-known security test measures like NPCR, MSE, PSNR, UACI, correlation coefficient, Entropy etc. and the results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is resistive to various types of known attacks. The scheme runs on comparatively low computational overhead. Further, the results are compared with existing schemes.

A chaotic color image encryption using integrated bit-level permutation

In this paper, a color image encryption algorithm based on chaos has been proposed. We convert the color image into three bit-level images (R, G, B components) and combine them to one bit-level image. Then, only use bit-level permutation architecture based on chaotic system to encrypt the integrated image. When diffuse the position of the integrated binary image, the value of the gray pixel is changed as well, so this architecture can achieve similar security to permutation-diffusion architecture. Besides, this architecture makes the three color components affect each other, it can reduce the correlations between three components. Simulation results show that the algorithm can encrypt the color image effectively and resist various typical attacks.     

A secure image encryption scheme based on chaotic maps and affine transformation

Due to the interesting nonlinear dynamic properties of chaotic maps, recently chaos-based encryption algorithms have gained much attention in cryptographic communities. However, many encryption schemes do not fulfil the minimum key space requirement, which is an essential concern in many secure data applications. In this paper, an efficient chaos-based image encryption scheme with higher key space is presented. Even with a single round of encryption, a significantly larger key space can be achieved. The proposed scheme removes correlation among image pixels via random chaotic sequences, simply by XOR and addition operations. In order to resist against numerous attacks, we apply the affine transformation to get the final ciphertext image. The security of the proposed scheme is proved through histogram, contrast, PSNR, entropy, correlation, key space, key sensitivity and differential attack analysis. Many significant properties of chaotic maps, sensitivity to initial condition and control parameters, structure and attack complexity, make the anticipated scheme very reliable, practical and robust in various secure communication applications.

A secure image encryption based on spatial surface chaotic system and AES algorithm

We propose a secure image encryption method using the combination of spatial surface chaotic system(SSCS) and the improved AES algorithm structure. In this scheme, the key of cryptosystem is obtained from the SSCS, this system has better encryption characteristics and its model structure fits the image exactly, and it is designed for image cryptosystems contrasted with the existing a lot of low-dimensional chaotic maps and couple map lattices. The plain image is encrypted with the improved AES algorithm and by performing each round encryption, the key is generated by SSCS in each round, an improved permutation algorithm(IPA) and a reverse diffusion have been presented. The proposed scheme not only improves the efficiency because of the same key stream is shared, but also increases the diffusion effect which can resist differential attack. The presented scheme provides huge key space to deal with the brute-force attacks using the round keys obtained by SSCS, and also very sensitive to initial values of SSCS and plain image. The results of simulation analysis and performance evaluation show that the presented cryptosystem provides strong security performance and may be used as a candidate for real-time implementations.

     

An image encryption scheme based on constructing large permutation with chaotic sequence

This paper proposes a chaos-based image encryption scheme with a permutation–diffusion structure. In the proposed scheme, the large permutation with the same size as the plain-image is used to shuffle the positions of image pixels totally. An effective method is also presented to construct the large permutation quickly and easily by combining several small permutations, where small permutations are directly generated using a chaotic map. In the diffusion stage, the pixel is enciphered by exclusive or with the previous ciphered pixel and a random number produced by the Logistic map with different initial conditions. Test results and analysis by using several security measures have shown that the proposed scheme is efficient and reliable, and can be applied to real-time image encryption.

A new secure and sensitive image encryption scheme based on new substitution with chaotic function

In this paper, a new image encryption scheme is proposed with high sensitivity to the plain image. In proposed scheme, two chaotic functions and logical operator xor are used. Image encryption process includes substitution of pixels and permutation. Using the new method of substitution, algorithm sensitivity somewhat has elevated to changes in the plain image that by changing a single pixel of the plain image, amount of NPCR reaches 100 %. Results of tests show that the cipher image does not give any information of statistical such as entropy, histogram and correlation of adjacent pixels to attackers. Also the proposed scheme has the wide key space and is so safe to the noise ratio and compression.

A new chaotic map based image encryption schemes for several image formats

This paper proposes several image encryption schemes for popular image formats as Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), Graphics Interchange Format (GIF), Portable Network Graphics (PNG), and Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). A cross chaotic map proposed based on Devaney's theory and dynamic block dividing of the 3D baker using the cross chaotic map are used for diffusion and permutation in encryption. Moreover, in order to verify user's identity, authentication is carried out using information hiding based on the cross chaotic function. In our methods, image files syntax and structure are not destructed, and the original image can be recovered lossless. For GIF, it keeps the property of animation successfully. The security test results indicate the proposed methods have high security, and the speed of our algorithm is faster than classical solutions. JPEG, GIF, TIFF and PNG image formats are popular contemporarily. Therefore this paper shows that the prospect of chaotic image encryption is promising.
