A proposed lightweight image encryption using ChaCha with hyperchaotic maps

Image encryption plays a pivotal rule in enhancing telecommunications media. Since Privacy is necessary in our daily life in many areas, the personal image will be encrypted when it sent it over the Internet to the recipient to maintain privacy issue. In this paper, the image is encrypted using ChaCha symmetric stream cipher with Hyperchaotic Map. Due to the sensitivity characteristics of initial conditions, pseudo randomness chaotic maps and control parameters in chaotic, Hyperchaotic maps is use, higher security is obtained via using initial seed number, variance of parameters, and unpredictable direction of chaotic. The suggested lightweight image encryption has confirmed robustness contra brute force attacks by providing a massive key space. Furthermore, the suggested lightweight image encryption is eligible to defense from statistical cracking, insecurity of image based on criteria's histogram correlation and entropy

Novel lightweight video encryption method based on ChaCha20 stream cipher and hybrid chaotic map

In the recent years, an increasing demand for securing visual resource-constrained devices become a challenging problem due to the characteristics of these devices. Visual resource-constrained devices are suffered from limited storage space and lower power for computation such as wireless sensors, internet protocol (IP) camera and smart cards. Consequently, to support and preserve the video privacy in video surveillance system, lightweight security methods are required instead of the existing traditional encryption methods. In this paper, a new light weight stream cipher method is presented and investigated for video encryption based on hybrid chaotic map and ChaCha20 algorithm. Two chaotic maps are employed for keys generation process in order to achieve permutation and encryption tasks, respectively. The frames sequences are encrypted-decrypted based on symmetric scheme with assist of ChaCha20 algorithm. The proposed lightweight stream cipher method has been tested on several video samples to confirm suitability and validation in term of encryption–decryption procedures. The performance evaluation metrics include visual test, histogram analysis, information entropy, correlation analysis and differential analysis. From the experimental results, the proposed lightweight encryption method exhibited a higher security with lower computation time compared with state-of-the-art encryption methods
