Generation of Boxes and Permutations Using a Bijective Function and the Lorenz Equations: An Application to Color Image Encryption

Abstract

Some images that contain sensitive information and travel through the network require security. Therefore, a symmetric cryptosystem that encrypts images and resists known attacks is developed. Subsequently, in this work, an encryption algorithm known as Image Cipher utilizing Lorenz equation and a Bijective Function—ICLEBF are proposed. In the proposal, the Lorenz equations and the Bijective function are used to generate boxes, the permutation, and schedule keys, considering that all these elements are different in each encryption process. The encryption procedure consists of 14 rounds, where a different box is applied in each round. In this type of algorithm, the impact of quantum computers will be less forceful and can be useful for that epoch. On the other hand, the quality of the encrypted images and the loss of sharpness in decoded images with damage are measured. In addition, an attack from five types of noise (one of which is a developed proposal) is carried out by applying it to encrypted images. Finally, the results of the proposed ICLEBF are compared with other recent image encryption algorithms, including the Advanced Encryption Standard. As a result, this proposal resists known attacks and others that the current standard does not support.

Digital signature algorithm based on ElGamal, Diffie-Hellman protocol and the number π

“…Using the central limit theorem the statistic χ 2 approximates a normal distribution. In fact, the mean µ has a value of 255, and the standard deviation, σ, has a value of approximately 22.5 [40]; Also, it is taken into account that the information is graphed in a histogram of 256 possible levels. Furthermore, the significance level proposed in this work is α = 0.01.…”

A New Image Encryption Scheme Based on the Hybridization of Lorenz Chaotic Map and Fibonacci Q-Matrix

“…The suggested method overcame the abovementioned restrictions and flaws, successfully securing and effectively safeguarding the color image. Chaotic systems are well-liked for picture encryption, such as Lorenz systems and their variations [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. FOHCL system exhibits strong, intricate, and non-static.…”
