Encryption of images using XOR Cipher
S. Arul Thileeban · 2016
These days, the major form of data used by a common person is images. And there have been multiple leaks of private images in the closer past due to application flaws. This paper proposes using XOR Cipher to encrypt the binary data in images pixel by pixel rather than securing it with an application so that it cannot be exploited or cracked easily. The proposed model explains multiple ways to encrypt the Image using XOR Cipher and the analysis shows that by using the proposed model, the images are properly encrypted. The proposed model was tested on various images including Mona Lisa, Apollo 11 and NebulaM83 and proper results were yielded.
