    Steganography is a vital security approach that hides any secret content within ordinary data, such as multimedia. First, the cover image is converted into a wavelet environment using the integer wavelet transform (IWT), which protects the cover images from false mistakes. The grey wolf optimizer (GWO) is used to choose the pixel’s image that would be utilized to insert the hidden image in the cover image. GWO effectively selects pixels by calculating entropy, pixel intensity, and fitness function using the cover images. Moreover, the secret image was encrypted by utilizing a proposed hyper-chaotic improved Henon map and fractal Tromino. The suggested method increases computational security and efficiency with increased embedding capacity. Following the embedding algorithm of the secret image and the alteration of the cover image, the least significant bit (LSB) is utilized to locate the tempered region and to provide self-recovery characteristics in the digital image. According to the findings, the proposed technique provides a more secure transmission network with lower complexity in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), normalized cross correlation (NCC), structural similarity index (SSIM), entropy and mean square error (MSE). As compared to the current approaches, the proposed method performed better in terms of PSNR 70.58% Db and SSIM 0.999 respectively

    IoT-Based Multi-Dimensional Chaos Mapping System for Secure and Fast Transmission of Visual Data in Smart Cities

    A “smart city” sends data from many sensors to a cloud server for local authorities and the public to connect. Smart city residents communicate mostly through images and videos. Many image security algorithms have been proposed to improve locals’ lives, but a high-class redundancy method with a small space requirement is still needed to acquire and protect this sensitive data. This paper proposes an IoT-based multi-dimensional chaos mapping system for secure and fast transmission of visual data in smart cities, which uses the five dimensional Gauss Sine Logistic system to generate hyper-chaotic sequences to encrypt images. The proposed method also uses pixel position permutation and Singular Value Decomposition with Discrete fractional cosine transform to compress and protect the sensitive image data. To increase security, we use a chaotic system to construct the chaotic sequences and a diffusion matrix. Furthermore, numerical simulation results and theoretical evaluations validate the suggested scheme’s security and efficacy after compression encryption.publishedVersio

    Color Image Encryption using Chaotic Algorithm and 2D Sin-Cos Henon Map for High Security

    In every form of electronic communication, data security must be an absolute top priority. As the prevalence of Internet and other forms of electronic communication continues to expand, so too does the need for visual content. There are numerous options for protecting transmitted data. It's important that the transmission of hidden messages in images remain unnoticed to avoid raising any red flags. In this paper, we propose a new deep learning-based image encryption algorithm for safe image retrieval. The proposed algorithm employs a deep artificial neural network model to extract features via sample training, allowing for more secure image network transmission. The algorithm is incorporated into a deep learning-based image retrieval process with Convolution Neural Networks(CNN), improving the efficiency of retrieval while also guaranteeing the security of ciphertext images. Experiments conducted on five different datasets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm vastly improves retrieval efficiency and strengthens data security. Also hypothesised a 2D Sin-Cos-Henon (2D-SCH)-based encryption algorithm for highly secure colour images. We demonstrate that this algorithm is secure against a variety of attacks and that it can encrypt all three colour channels of an image simultaneously

    Full text link
    A new image encryption scheme using the advanced encryption standard (AES), a chaotic map, a genetic operator, and a fuzzy inference system is proposed in this paper. In this work, plain images were used as input, and the required security level was achieved. Security criteria were computed after running a proposed encryption process. Then an adaptive fuzzy system decided whether to repeat the encryption process, terminate it, or run the next stage based on the achieved results and user demand. The SHA-512 hash function was employed to increase key sensitivity. Security analysis was conducted to evaluate the security of the proposed scheme, which showed it had high security and all the criteria necessary for a good and efficient encryption algorithm were met. Simulation results and the comparison of similar works showed the proposed encryptor had a pseudo-noise output and was strongly dependent upon the changing key and plain image.Comment: Iranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems (2023

    Iot Based Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis Model for Providing Security Using Light Weight Hybrid Cryptography

    Security in the Internet of things (IoT) is a broad yet active research area that focuses on securing the sensitive data being circulated in the network. The data involved in the IoT network comes from various organizations, hospitals, etc., that require a higher range of security from attacks and breaches. The common solution for security attacks is using traditional cryptographic algorithms that can protect the content through encryption and decryption operations. The existing solutions are suffering from major drawbacks, including computational complexities, time and space complexities, slower encryption, etc. Therefore, to overcome such drawbacks, this paper introduces an efficient light weight cryptographic mechanism to secure the images of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) being transmitted in the network. The mechanism involves major stages such as edge detection, key generation, encryption, and decryption. In the case of edge detection, the edge maps are detected using the Prewitt edge detection technique. Then the hybrid elliptic curve cryptography (HECC) algorithm is proposed to encrypt and secure the images being transmitted in the network. For encryption, the HECC algorithm combines blowfish with the elliptic curve algorithm to attain a higher range of security. Another significant advantage of the proposed method is selecting the ideal private key, which is achieved using the enhanced seagull optimization (ESO) algorithm. The proposed work has been tested in the Python tool, and the performance is evaluated with the Alzheimer’s dataset, and the outcomes proved its efficacy over the compared methods

    Medical Images Encryption Based on Adaptive-Robust Multi-Mode Synchronization of Chen Hyper-Chaotic Systems

    In this paper, a novel medical image encryption method based on multi-mode synchronization of hyper-chaotic systems is presented. The synchronization of hyper-chaotic systems is of great significance in secure communication tasks such as encryption of images. Multi-mode synchronization is a novel and highly complex issue, especially if there is uncertainty and disturbance. In this work, an adaptive-robust controller is designed for multimode synchronized chaotic systems with variable and unknown parameters, despite the bounded disturbance and uncertainty with a known function in two modes. In the first case, it is a main system with some response systems, and in the second case, it is a circular synchronization. Using theorems it is proved that the two synchronization methods are equivalent. Our results show that, we are able to obtain the convergence of synchronization error and parameter estimation error to zero using Lyapunov’s method. The new laws to update time-varying parameters, estimating disturbance and uncertainty bounds are proposed such that stability of system is guaranteed. To assess the performance of the proposed synchronization method, various statistical analyzes were carried out on the encrypted medical images and standard benchmark images. The results show effective performance of the proposed synchronization technique in the medical images encryption for telemedicine application.MINECO/ FEDER under the RTI2018-098913-B100 CV20-45250 and A-TIC- 080-UGR18 project
