Moreover, how to safely transmit digital imagesthrough public channels has become an urgent problem. In this paper, we propose a novel image encryptionalgorithm, called chaotic compressive sensing (CS) encryption (CCSE), which can not only improve the efficiencyof image transmission but also introduce the high security of the chaotic system. Specifically, the proposed CCSEcan fully leverage the advantages of the Chebyshev chaotic system and CS, enabling it to withstand various attacks,such as differential attacks, and exhibit robustness. First, we use a sparse trans-form to sparse the plaintext imageand then use theArnold transformto perturb the image pixels. After that,we elaborate aChebyshev Toeplitz chaoticsensing matrix for CCSE. By using this Toeplitz matrix, the perturbed image is compressed and sampled to reducethe transmission bandwidth and the amount of data. Finally, a bilateral diffusion operator and a chaotic encryptionoperator are used to perturb and expand the image pixels to change the pixel position and value of the compressedimage, and ultimately obtain an encrypted image.

First, a dynamic spiral block scrambling is designed to encrypt the sparse matrix generated by performing discrete wavelet transform(DWT)on the plain image.

Some algorithms have issues such as weak correlation with plaintext images, poor image reconstruction quality, and low efficiency in transmission and storage. To solve these issues,this paper proposes an optical image encryption algorithm based on a new four-dimensional memristive hyperchaotic system(4D MHS) and compressed sensing(CS). Firstly, this paper proposes a new 4D MHS, which has larger key space, richer dynamic behavior, and more complex hyperchaotic characteristics. The introduction of CS can reduce the image size and the transmission burden of hardware devices. The introduction of double random phase encoding(DRPE) enables this algorithm has the ability of parallel data processing and multi-dimensional coding space, and the hyperchaotic characteristics of 4D MHS make up for the nonlinear deficiency of DRPE. Secondly, a construction method of the deterministic chaotic measurement matrix(DCMM) is proposed. Using DCMM can not only save a lot of transmission bandwidth and storage space, but also ensure good quality of reconstructed images. Thirdly, the confusion method and diffusion method proposed are related to plaintext images, which require both four hyperchaotic sequences of 4D MHS and row and column keys based on plaintext images. The generation process of hyperchaotic sequences is closely related to the hash value of plaintext images. Therefore, this algorithm has high sensitivity to plaintext images. The experimental testing and comparative analysis results show that proposed algorithm has good security and effectiveness.展开更多

文摘The security of digital images transmitted via the Internet or other public media is of the utmost importance.Image encryption is a method of keeping an image secure while it travels across a non-secure communication medium where it could be intercepted by unauthorized entities.This study provides an approach to color image encryption that could find practical use in various contexts.The proposed method,which combines four chaotic systems,employs singular value decomposition and a chaotic sequence,making it both secure and compression-friendly.The unified average change intensity,the number of pixels’change rate,information entropy analysis,correlation coefficient analysis,compression friendliness,and security against brute force,statistical analysis and differential attacks are all used to evaluate the algorithm’s performance.Following a thorough investigation of the experimental data,it is concluded that the proposed image encryption approach is secure against a wide range of attacks and provides superior compression friendliness when compared to chaos-based alternatives.

文摘Based on some analyses of existing chaotic image encryption frameworks and a new designed three-dimensional improved logistic chaotic map(3D-ILM),an asymmetric image encryption algorithm using public-key Rivest–Shamir–Adleman(RSA)is presented in this paper.In the first stage,a new 3D-ILM is proposed to enhance the chaotic behavior considering analysis of time sequence,Lyapunov exponent,and Shannon entropy.In the second stage,combined with the public key RSA algorithm,a new key acquisition mathematical model(MKA)is constructed to obtain the initial keys for the 3D-ILM.Consequently,the key stream can be produced depending on the plain image for a higher security.Moreover,a novel process model(NPM)for the input of the 3D-ILM is built,which is built to improve the distribution uniformity of the chaotic sequence.In the third stage,to encrypt the plain image,a pre-process by exclusive OR(XOR)operation with a random matrix is applied.Then,the pre-processed image is performed by a permutation for rows,a downward modulo function for adjacent pixels,a permutation for columns,a forward direction XOR addition-modulo diffusion,and a backward direction XOR addition-modulo diffusion to achieve the final cipher image.Moreover,experiments show that the the proposed algorithm has a better performance.Especially,the number of pixels change rate(NPCR)is close to ideal case 99.6094%,with the unified average changing intensity(UACI)close to 33.4634%,and the information entropy(IE)close to 8.

文摘The generation method of the key stream and the structure of the algorithm determine the security of the cryptosystem.The classical chaotic map has simple dynamic behavior and few control parameters,so it is not suitable for modern cryptography.In this paper,we design a new 2D hyperchaotic system called 2D simple structure and complex dynamic behavior map(2D-SSCDB).The 2D-SSCDB has a simple structure but has complex dynamic behavior.The Lyapunov exponent verifies that the 2D-SSCDB has hyperchaotic behavior,and the parameter space in the hyperchaotic state is extensive and continuous.Trajectory analysis and some randomness tests verify that the 2D-SSCDB can generate random sequences with good performance.Next,to verify the excellent performance of the 2D-SSCDB,we use the 2D-SSCDB to generate a keystream for color image encryption.In the encryption algorithm,the encryption algorithm scrambles and diffuses simultaneously,increasing the cryptographic system’s security.The horizontal correlation,vertical correlation,and diagonal correlation of ciphertext are−0.0004,−0.0004 and 0.0007,respectively.The average information entropy of the ciphertext is 7.9993.In addition,the designed encryption algorithm reduces the correlation between the three channels of the color image.Security analysis shows that the color image encryption algorithm designed using 2DSSCDB has good security,can resist standard attack methods,and has high efficiency.

文摘A new four-dimensional(4D)memristive chaotic system is obtained by introducing a memristor into the Rucklidge chaotic system,and a detailed dynamic analysis of the system is performed.The sensitivity of the system to parameters allows it obtains 16 different attractors by changing only one parameter.The various transient behaviors and excellent spectral entropy and C0 complexity values of the system can also reflect the high complexity of the system.A circuit is designed and verified the feasibility of the system from the physical level.Finally,the system is applied to image encryption,and the security of the encryption system is analyzed from multiple aspects,providing a reference for the application of such memristive chaotic systems.
文摘Some existing image encryption schemes use simple low-dimensional chaotic systems, which makes the algorithms insecure and vulnerable to brute force attacks and cracking. Some algorithms have issues such as weak correlation with plaintext images, poor image reconstruction quality, and low efficiency in transmission and storage. To solve these issues,this paper proposes an optical image encryption algorithm based on a new four-dimensional memristive hyperchaotic system(4D MHS) and compressed sensing(CS). Firstly, this paper proposes a new 4D MHS, which has larger key space, richer dynamic behavior, and more complex hyperchaotic characteristics. The introduction of CS can reduce the image size and the transmission burden of hardware devices. The introduction of double random phase encoding(DRPE) enables this algorithm has the ability of parallel data processing and multi-dimensional coding space, and the hyperchaotic characteristics of 4D MHS make up for the nonlinear deficiency of DRPE. Secondly, a construction method of the deterministic chaotic measurement matrix(DCMM) is proposed. Using DCMM can not only save a lot of transmission bandwidth and storage space, but also ensure good quality of reconstructed images. Thirdly, the confusion method and diffusion method proposed are related to plaintext images, which require both four hyperchaotic sequences of 4D MHS and row and column keys based on plaintext images. The generation process of hyperchaotic sequences is closely related to the hash value of plaintext images. Therefore, this algorithm has high sensitivity to plaintext images. The experimental testing and comparative analysis results show that proposed algorithm has good security and effectiveness.

文摘Traditional image encryption algorithms transform a plain image into a noise-like image.To lower the chances for the encrypted image being detected by the attacker during the image transmission,a visually meaningful image encryption scheme is suggested to hide the encrypted image using another carrier image.This paper proposes a visually meaningful encrypted image algorithm that hides a secret image and a digital signature which provides authenticity and confidentiality.The recovered digital signature is used for the purpose of identity authentication while the secret image is encrypted to protect its confidentiality.Least Significant Bit(LSB)method to embed signature on the encrypted image and Lifting Wavelet Transform(LWT)to generate a visually meaningful encrypted image are designed.The proposed algorithm has a keyspace of 139.5-bit,a Normalized Correlation(NC)value of 0.9998 which is closer to 1 and a Peak Signal to Noise Ratio(PSNR)with a value greater than 50 dB.Different analyses are also performed on the proposed algorithm using different images.The experimental results show that the proposed scheme is with high key sensitivity and strong robustness against pepper and salt attack and cropping attack.Moreover,the histogram analysis shows that the original carrier image and the final visual image are very similar.

文摘Nowadays,high-resolution images pose several challenges in the context of image encryption.The encryption of huge images’file sizes requires high computational resources.Traditional encryption techniques like,Data Encryption Standard(DES),and Advanced Encryption Standard(AES)are not only inefficient,but also less secure.Due to characteristics of chaos theory,such as periodicity,sensitivity to initial conditions and control parameters,and unpredictability.Hence,the characteristics of deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA),such as vast parallelism and large storage capacity,make it a promising field.This paper presents an efficient color image encryption method utilizing DNA encoding with two types of hyper-chaotic maps.The proposed encryption method comprises three steps.The first step initializes the conditions for generating Lorenz and Rossler hyper-chaotic maps using a plain image Secure Hash Algorithm(SHA-256/384).The second step performs a confusion procedure by scrambling the three components of the image(red,green,and blue)using Lorenz hyper-chaotic sequences.Finally,the third step combines three approaches to encrypt the scrambled components for diffusion:DNA encoding/decoding,addition operation between components,and XORing with Rossler hyper-chaotic sequences.The simulation results indicate that the suggested encryption algorithm satisfies the requirements of security.The entropy value of confusion and diffusion is 7.997,the key space is 2200,and the correlation coefficient is nearly zero.The efficacy of the proposed method has been verified through numerous evaluations,and the results show its resistance and effectiveness against several attacks,like statistical and brute-force attacks.Finally,the devised algorithm vanquishes other relevant color image encryption algorithms.
文摘In the era of network communication,digital image encryption(DIE)technology is critical to ensure the security of image data.However,there has been limited research on combining deep learning neural networks with chaotic mapping for the encryption of digital images.So,this paper addresses this gap by studying the generation of pseudo-random sequences(PRS)chaotic signals using dual logistic chaotic maps.These signals are then predicted using long and short-term memory(LSTM)networks,resulting in the reconstruction of a new chaotic signal.During the research process,it was discovered that there are numerous training parameters associated with the LSTM network,which can hinder training efficiency.To overcome this challenge and improve training efficiency,the paper proposes an improved particle swarm optimization(IPSO)algorithm to optimize the LSTM network.Subsequently,the obtained chaotic signal from the optimized model training is further scrambled,obfuscated,and diffused to achieve the final encrypted image.This research presents a digital image encryption(DIE)algorithm based on a double chaotic map(DCM)and LSTM.The algorithm demonstrates a high average NPCR(Number of Pixel Change Rate)of 99.56%and a UACI(Unified Average Changing Intensity)value of 33.46%,indicating a strong ability to resist differential attacks.Overall,the proposed algorithm realizes secure and sensitive digital image encryption,ensuring the protection of personal information in the Internet environment.

文摘Chaos-based cryptosystems are considered a secure mode of communication due to their reliability.Chaotic maps are associated with the other domains to construct robust encryption algorithms.There exist numerous encryption schemes in the literature based on chaotic maps.This work aims to propose an attack on a recently proposed hyper-chaotic map-based cryptosystem.The core notion of the original algorithm was based on permutation and diffusion.A bitlevel permutation approach was used to do the permutation row-and column-wise.The diffusion was executed in the forward and backward directions.The statistical strength of the cryptosystem has been demonstrated by extensive testing conducted by the author of the cryptosystem.This cryptanalysis article investigates the robustness of this cryptosystem against a chosen-plaintext attack.The secret keys of the cryptosystem were retrieved by the proposed attack with 258 chosen-plain images.The results in this manuscript suggest that,in addition to standard statistical evaluations,thorough cryptanalysis of each newly suggested cryptosystem is necessary before it can be used in practical application.Moreover,the data retrieved is also passed through some statistical analysis to compare the quality of the original and retrieved data.The results of the performance analysis indicate the exact recovery of the original data.To make the cryptosystem useful for applications requiring secure data exchange,a few further improvement recommendations are also suggested.

文摘With the rapid development of 5G technology,it has become fast and easy for people to transmit information on the Internet.Digital images can express information more intuitively,so transmitting information through images has excellent applications.This paper uses a new chaotic system called 1D-Sin-Logistic-Map(1D-SLM).1D-SLM has two control parameters,which can provide larger parameter space,and the parameter space in the chaotic state is continuous.Through Lyapunov exponent analysis(LE),bifurcation diagrams analysis,spectral entropy analysis(SE),and 0-1 test,it is verified that 1D-SLM has complex dynamic behavior and is very suitable for cryptography.Compared with other 1D chaotic systems,the 1D-SLM has a larger Lyapunov exponent(LE)and spectral entropy(SE).For color image encryption algorithms,only relying on chaotic mapping is not enough to ensure security.So combined with 1D-SLM,we design a color image encryption algorithm,which is implemented by plane expansion,which reduces the correlation between the three channels of color images.The experimental results show that the proposed cross-plane color image encryption algorithm is safe and resistant to common attack methods.

文摘Information security has emerged as a key problem in encryption because of the rapid evolution of the internet and networks.Thus,the progress of image encryption techniques is becoming an increasingly serious issue and considerable problem.Small space of the key,encryption-based low confidentiality,low key sensitivity,and easily exploitable existing image encryption techniques integrating chaotic system and DNA computing are purposing the main problems to propose a new encryption technique in this study.In our proposed scheme,a three-dimensional Chen’s map and a one-dimensional Logistic map are employed to construct a double-layer image encryption scheme.In the confusion stage,different scrambling operations related to the original plain image pixels are designed using Chen’s map.A stream pixel scrambling operation related to the plain image is constructed.Then,a block scrambling-based image encryption-related stream pixel scrambled image is designed.In the diffusion stage,two rounds of pixel diffusion are generated related to the confusing image for intra-image diffusion.Chen’s map,logistic map,and DNA computing are employed to construct diffusion operations.A reverse complementary rule is applied to obtain a new form of DNA.A Chen’s map is used to produce a pseudorandom DNA sequence,and then another DNA form is constructed from a reverse pseudorandom DNA sequence.Finally,the XOR operation is performed multiple times to obtain the encrypted image.According to the simulation of experiments and security analysis,this approach extends the key space,has great sensitivity,and is able to withstand various typical attacks.An adequate encryption effect is achieved by the proposed algorithm,which can simultaneously decrease the correlation between adjacent pixels by making it near zero,also the information entropy is increased.The number of pixels changing rate(NPCR)and the unified average change intensity(UACI)both are very near to optimal values.
