Literature Study On Cloud Based Healthcare File Protection Algorithms

There is a huge development in Computers and Cloud computing technology, the trend in recent years is to outsource information storage on Cloud-based services. The cloud provides  large storage space. Cloud-based service providers such as Dropbox, Google Drive, are providing users with infinite and low-cost storage. In this project we aim at presenting a protection method through by encrypting and decrypting the files to provide enhanced level of protection. To encrypt the file that we upload in cloud, we make use of double encryption technique. The file is been encrypted twice one followed by the other using two algorithms. The order in which the algorithms are used is that, the file is first encrypted using AES algorithm, now this file will be in the encrypted format and this encrypted file is again encrypted using RSA algorithm. The corresponding keys are been generated during the execution of the algorithm. This is done in order to increase the security level. The various parameters that we have considered here are security level, speed, data confidentiality, data integrity and cipher text size. Our project is more efficient as it satisfies all the parameters whereas the conventional methods failed to do so. The Cloud we used is Dropbox to store the content of the file which is in the encrypted format using AES and RSA algorithms and corresponding key is generated which can be used to decrypt the file. While uploading the file the double encryption technique is been implemented

A review on structured scheme representation on data security application

With the rapid development in the era of Internet and networking technology, there is always a requirement to improve the security systems, which secure the transmitted data over an unsecured channel. The needs to increase the level of security in transferring the data always become the critical issue. Therefore, data security is a significant area in covering the issue of security, which refers to protect the data from unwanted forces and prevent unauthorized access to a communication. This paper presents a review of structured-scheme representation for data security application. There are five structured-scheme types, which can be represented as dual-scheme, triple-scheme, quad-scheme, octal-scheme and hexa-scheme. These structured-scheme types are designed to improve and strengthen the security of data on the application

Enhanced image security using residue number system and new Arnold transform

This paper aims to improve the image scrambling and encryption effect in traditional two-dimensional discrete Arnold transform by introducing a new Residue number system (RNS) with three moduli and the New Arnold Transform. The study focuses on improving the classical discrete Arnold transform with quasi-affine properties, applying image scrambling and encryption research. The design of the method is explicit to three moduli set {2n, 2n+1+1, 2n+1-1}. These moduli set includes equalized and shapely moduli leading to the effective execution of the residue to binary converter. The study employs an arithmetic residue to the binary converter and an improved Arnold transformation algorithm. The encryption process uses MATLAB to accept a digital image input and subsequently convert the image into an RNS representation. The images are connected as a group. The resulting encrypted image uses the Arnold transformation algorithm. The encrypted image is used as input at decryption using the anti-Arnold (Reverse Arnold) transformation algorithm to convert the picture to the original RNS (original pixel value). Then the RNS was used to retransform the original RNS to its binary form. Security analysis tests, like histogram analysis, keyspace, key sensitivity, and correlation coefficient analysis, were administered on the encrypted image. Results show that the hybrid system can use the improved Arnold transform algorithm with better security and no constraint on image width and size

Cryptography and Its Applications in Information Security

Nowadays, mankind is living in a cyber world. Modern technologies involve fast communication links between potentially billions of devices through complex networks (satellite, mobile phone, Internet, Internet of Things (IoT), etc.). The main concern posed by these entangled complex networks is their protection against passive and active attacks that could compromise public security (sabotage, espionage, cyber-terrorism) and privacy. This Special Issue “Cryptography and Its Applications in Information Security” addresses the range of problems related to the security of information in networks and multimedia communications and to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industrials interested by such questions. It consists of eight peer-reviewed papers, however easily understandable, that cover a range of subjects and applications related security of information

Multimedia security and privacy protection in the internet of things: research developments and challenges

With the rapid growth of the internet of things (IoT), huge amounts of multimedia data are being generated from and/or exchanged through various IoT devices, systems and applications. The security and privacy of multimedia data have, however, emerged as key challenges that have the potential to impact the successful deployment of IoT devices in some data-sensitive applications. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive survey on multimedia data security and privacy protection in the IoT. First, we classify multimedia data into different types and security levels according to application areas. Then, we analyse and discuss the existing multimedia data protection schemes in the IoT, including traditional techniques (e.g., cryptography and watermarking) and emerging technologies (e.g., blockchain and federated learning). Based on the detailed analysis on the research development of IoT-related multimedia security and privacy protection, we point out some open challenges and provide future research directions, aiming to advance the study in the relevant fields and assist researchers in gaining a deeper understanding of the state of the art on multimedia data protection in the IoT

An efficient chaos-based image encryption technique using bitplane decay and genetic operators

Social networks have greatly expanded in the last ten years the need for sharing multimedia data. However, on open networks such as the Internet, where security is frequently compromised, it is simple for eavesdroppers to approach the actual contents without much difficulty. Researchers have created a variety of encryption methods to strengthen the security of this transmission and make it difficult for eavesdroppers to get genuine data. However, these conventional approaches increase computing costs and communication overhead and do not offer protection against fresh threats. The problems with current algorithms encourage academics to further investigate the subject and suggest new algorithms that are more effective than current methods, that reduce overhead, and which are equipped with features needed by next-generation multimedia networks. In this paper, a genetic operator-based encryption method for multimedia security is proposed. It has been noted that the proposed algorithm produces improved key strength results. The investigations using attacks on data loss, differential assaults, statistical attacks, and brute force attacks show that the encryption technique suggested has improved security performance. It focuses on two techniques, bitplane slicing and followed by block segmentation and scrambling. The suggested method first divides the plaintext picture into several blocks, which is then followed by block swapping done by the genetic operator used to combine the genetic information of two different images to generate new offspring. The key stream is produced from an iterative chaotic map with infinite collapse (ICMIC). Based on a close-loop modulation coupling (CMC) approach, a three-dimensional hyperchaotic ICMIC modulation map is proposed. By using a hybrid model of multidirectional circular permutation with this map, a brand-new colour image encryption algorithm is created. In this approach, a multidirectional circular permutation is used to disrupt the image's pixel placements, and genetic operations are used to replace the pixel values. According to simulation findings and security research, the technique can fend off brute-force, statistical, differential, known-plaintext, and chosen-plaintext assaults, and has a strong key sensitivity.Web of Science2220art. no. 804
