“…Image encryption algorithms based on DNA encoding can have high security and require less storage requirements. Yet the decryption process requires additional DNA rule tables to be transmitted along with the encrypted image [34]. Furthermore, DNA encoding-based encryption is still experimental and only explored in academic research; it requires specialized lab equipment to convert binary values into synthetic DNA sequences.…”

Ensuring confidentiality and privacy is critical when it comes to sharing images over unsecured networks such as the internet. Since widely used and secure encryption methods, such as AES, Twofish, and RSA, are not suitable for real-time image encryption due to their slow encryption speeds and high computational requirements, researchers have proposed specialized algorithms for image encryption. This paper provides an introduction and overview of the image encryption algorithms and metrics used, aiming to evaluate them and help researchers and practitioners starting in this field obtain adequate information to understand the current state of image encryption algorithms. This paper classifies image encryption into seven different approaches based on the techniques used and analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. Furthermore, this paper provides a detailed review of a comprehensive set of security, quality, and efficiency evaluation metrics for image encryption algorithms, and provides upper and lower bounds for these evaluation metrics. Finally, this paper discusses the pros and cons of different image encryption approaches as well as the suitability of different image encryption approaches for different applications.

“…There are eight rules that may be used to encode and decode DNA sequences, such as R1 rule in Table I, where a pixel value of 175 corresponds to "10101111," and the DNA sequence created by this rule is "GGTT." It is nearly impossible to separate the DNA coding rule from existing picture encryption methods based on this rule or its modification [18].…”

Recently, the growth of data transmission through various networks has the necessity for an elevated level of security. Encryption is one of the essential technologies for protecting and ensuring the integrity of IoT devices. Secure communication among constrained devices is critical during data transmission from the client to the server devices. Lightweight cipher algorithms are defined as a secure solution for devices with limited computational functions and memory. On the other hand, most lightweight algorithms suffer from a trade-off between complexity and speed to produce a robust cipher algorithm. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of an image encryption technique that uses a Lightweight GIFT algorithm and logistic map equation-based dynamic DNA coding to create a secure, lightweight cipher algorithm for IoT devices. When we employed dynamic DNA coding by the binary bit method, we observed that the developed approach is more secure and has a high level of randomness due to the results. Additionally, the correlation between nearby pixels is approximately zero; there is no association between the two images. Therefore, the developed approach achieves a higher encryption efficiency when compared to the original algorithm. Index Terms— lightweight image encryption, DNA image encryption, chaotic map, dynamic DNA.

With the increasing development of information technology, image information security has received more and more attention. Furthermore, image encryption is one of the most powerful methods to ensure image information security and plays a vital role in modern society. This paper proposes an image encryption algorithm based on an improved lifting-like structure and cross-plane zigzag transform. First, to overcome the problem of simple original lifting-like structure and single update function. We modularize the original image and add new update functions and prediction functions to handle the information between different modules. Our proposed structure has higher encryption quality and can better spread the information between each image pixel. Secondly, we propose a cross-plane zigzag transform, which can effectively eliminate the correlation between adjacent elements of the original image by applying the zigzag transform to the replacement between different planes, overcoming the disadvantage that the traditional zigzag transform is limited in scanning mode and challenging to resist brute-force attack. The experimental results show that compared with other state-of-the-art schemes, this scheme has higher information entropy, can well resist selective plaintext attacks and differential attacks, and has better security.
