Novel Framework for Hidden Data in the Image Page within Executable File Using Computation between Advanced Encryption Standard and Distortion Techniques
The hurried development of multimedia and internet allows for wide
distribution of digital media data. It becomes much easier to edit, modify and
duplicate digital information. In additional, digital document is also easy to
copy and distribute, therefore it may face many threats. It became necessary to
find an appropriate protection due to the significance, accuracy and
sensitivity of the information. Furthermore, there is no formal method to be
followed to discover a hidden data. In this paper, a new information hiding
framework is presented.The proposed framework aim is implementation of
framework computation between advance encryption standard (AES) and distortion
technique (DT) which embeds information in image page within executable file
(EXE file) to find a secure solution to cover file without change the size of
cover file. The framework includes two main functions; first is the hiding of
the information in the image page of EXE file, through the execution of four
process (specify the cover file, specify the information file, encryption of
the information, and hiding the information) and the second function is the
extraction of the hiding information through three process (specify the stego
file, extract the information, and decryption of the information).Comment: 6 Pages IEEE Format, International Journal of Computer Science and

A Novel Latin Square Image Cipher
In this paper, we introduce a symmetric-key Latin square image cipher (LSIC)
for grayscale and color images. Our contributions to the image encryption
community include 1) we develop new Latin square image encryption primitives
including Latin Square Whitening, Latin Square S-box and Latin Square P-box ;
2) we provide a new way of integrating probabilistic encryption in image
encryption by embedding random noise in the least significant image bit-plane;
and 3) we construct LSIC with these Latin square image encryption primitives
all on one keyed Latin square in a new loom-like substitution-permutation
network. Consequently, the proposed LSIC achieve many desired properties of a
secure cipher including a large key space, high key sensitivities, uniformly
distributed ciphertext, excellent confusion and diffusion properties,
semantically secure, and robustness against channel noise. Theoretical analysis
show that the LSIC has good resistance to many attack models including
brute-force attacks, ciphertext-only attacks, known-plaintext attacks and
chosen-plaintext attacks. Experimental analysis under extensive simulation
results using the complete USC-SIPI Miscellaneous image dataset demonstrate
that LSIC outperforms or reach state of the art suggested by many peer
algorithms. All these analysis and results demonstrate that the LSIC is very
suitable for digital image encryption. Finally, we open source the LSIC MATLAB
code under webpage https://sites.google.com/site/tuftsyuewu/source-code.Comment: 26 pages, 17 figures, and 7 table
A Novel Image Encryption Using an Integration Technique of Blocks Rotation Based on the Magic Cube and the AES Algorithm
In recent years, several encryption algorithms have been proposed to protect
digital images from cryptographic attacks. These encryption algorithms
typically use a relatively small key space and therefore, provide safe,
especially if they are of a dimension. In this paper proposes an encryption
algorithm for a new image protection scheme based on the rotation of the faces
of a Magic Cube. The original image is divided into six sub-images and these
sub-images are divided amongst a number of blocks and attached to the faces of
a Magic Cube. The faces are then scrambled using rotation of the Magic Cube.
Then the rotated image is fed to the AES algorithm which is applied to the
pixels of the image to encrypt the scrambled image. Finally, experimental
results and security analysis show that the proposed image encryption scheme
not only encrypts the picture to achieve perfect hiding, but the algorithm can
also withstand exhaustive, statistical and differential attacks
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
Optimal quantitative cryptanalysis of permutation-only multimedia ciphers against plaintext attacks
Recently, an image scrambling encryption algorithm of pixel bit based on
chaos map was proposed. Considering the algorithm as a typical binary image
scrambling/permutation algorithm exerting on plaintext of size ,
this paper proposes a novel optimal method to break it with some
known/chosen-plaintexts. The spatial complexity and computational complexity of
the attack are only and respectively,
where is the number of known/chosen-plaintexts used. The method can be
easily extended to break any permutation-only encryption scheme exerting on
plaintext of size and with different levels of values. The
corresponding spatial complexity and computational complexity are only
and respectively. In addition, some
specific remarks on the performance of the image scrambling encryption
algorithm are presented.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure
