“…Most of the conventional cryptographic algorithms are built to protect the content test messages which are not suitable for multimedia data (i.e., speech) during communication because it involves some inherent features such as encryption and decryption process of speech is different from that test messages, and data redundancy [6]. In recent years, extensive studies have been observed in the research community to apply a various algorithms based on chaos cryptographyto design a robustness crypto-system for multimedia data due to it is desirable features such as non-linear, deterministic, aperiodicity, sensitivity to initial conditions, and un-regular behaviours (i.e., random-like performance) [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14], but unfortunately there are fundamental drawbacks in these chaotic crypto-systems in terms of cryptanalysis attacks (i.e., low level of security, and small key space) [15,16]. In general, chaotic crypto-systems can be classified into three categories based on their structure (i.e., analogue, or digital chaotic) each category represented by different In this paper we have used chaos based cryptography (i.e., chaotic cryptography) to propose a new dynamic speech crypto-system using Hénon chaotic map to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.…”
