A Randomized Kernel-Based Secret Image Sharing Scheme
This paper proposes a ()-threshold secret image sharing scheme that
offers flexibility in terms of meeting contrasting demands such as information
security and storage efficiency with the help of a randomized kernel (binary
matrix) operation. A secret image is split into shares such that any or
more shares () can be used to reconstruct the image. Each share has a
size less than or at most equal to the size of the secret image. Security and
share sizes are solely determined by the kernel of the scheme. The kernel
operation is optimized in terms of the security and computational requirements.
The storage overhead of the kernel can further be made independent of its size
by efficiently storing it as a sparse matrix. Moreover, the scheme is free from
any kind of single point of failure (SPOF).Comment: Accepted in IEEE International Workshop on Information Forensics and

Review on DNA Cryptography
Cryptography is the science that secures data and communication over the
network by applying mathematics and logic to design strong encryption methods.
In the modern era of e-business and e-commerce the protection of
confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA triad) of stored information
as well as of transmitted data is very crucial. DNA molecules, having the
capacity to store, process and transmit information, inspires the idea of DNA
cryptography. This combination of the chemical characteristics of biological
DNA sequences and classical cryptography ensures the non-vulnerable
transmission of data. In this paper we have reviewed the present state of art
of DNA cryptography.Comment: 31 pages, 12 figures, 6 table
