International audienceIn some previous research works, it has been theoretically proven that RC5-CBC encryption algorithm behaves as a Devaney topological chaos dynamical system. This unpre-dictable behavior has been experimentally illustrated through such sensitivity tests analyses encompassing the avalanche effect phenomenon evaluation. In this paper, which is an extension of our previous work, we aim to prove that RC5 algorithm can guarantee a much better level of security and randomness while behaving chaotically, namely when embedded with CBC mode of encryption. To do this, we have began by evaluating the quality of such images encrypted under chaotic RC5-CBC symmetric key encryption algorithm. Then, we have presented the synthesis results of an hardware architecture that implements this chaotic algorithm in FPGA circuits
