In this digital era, the need for security of data over the internet is increasing day by day. Images are often used to store and share data securely. Along with data security, data confidentiality and integrity is a major issue while transferring data over the network. Image encryption techniques such as AES image encryption algorithm and Visual Cryptography can be used to provide security to images and image data. In the proposed system, the main role of Visual Cryptography is to store image or image data secured over the network in the form of shares. The image is being encrypted securely using AES encryption algorithm and SHA3-512 algorithm with an added layer of security provided by the DWTCT(Discrete Wavelet Transform based Content Transform) function. The implementation of these algorithms is carried out using python. The results obtained are studied and the system’s future scope is discussed.
