To prevent image from unauthorized access, Encryption techniques of digital images play a very important role .The Fully image encryption techniques is very complex in nature and takes a lot of computational time.But, certain applications do not require total encryption; it requires a part of the multimedia data to be transparent to all users, like Pay-TV or Payable Internet Imaging Albums which involves encrypting the most meaningful parts of an image.In this paper we focus on a partial image encryption technique based on block wise shuffling with the help of Arnold map .Firstly image is divided into blocks then Blocks within the image are permuted by using Arnold map and final permuted block are combined that yields partial encrypted images .This process is repeated for different block size.The PSNR and NPCR obtained by our technique shows that the proposed technique gives better result than the existing techniques.
