Image encryption using chaos theory
Minal Govind Avasare, Vishakha Kelkar · 2015
In open network, it is important to keep sensitive information secure from becoming vulnerable to unauthorized access. Encryption is used to ensure high security for Images. Chaos has been widely used for image encryption for its different features. There are many chaos based encryption techniques. Most of the proposed discrete chaotic cryptographic approaches are based on stream or block cipher schemes. If these two schemes are combined the security level is improved. Novel image encryption is proposed based on combination of pixel shuffling. Chaos is used for expand diffusion & confusion in image. Chaotic maps gives advantages of large key space and high level security. We survey exiting work which uses different techniques for image encryption and analyse them with respect to various parameters. To evaluate security & performance, key space analysis, correlation coefficient, histogram, information entropy, NPCR, UACI etc. will be studied.
