This paper proposes a chaotic color image encryption scheme based on DNA-coding calculations and arithmetic over the Galois field. Firstly, three modified one-dimensional (1D) chaotic maps with larger key space and better chaotic characteristics are presented. The experimental results show that their chaotic intervals are not only expanded to 0,15, but their average largest Lyapunov Exponent reaches 10. They are utilized as initial keys. Secondly, DNA coding and calculations are applied in order to add more permutation of the cryptosystem. Ultimately, the numeration over the Galois field ensures the effect for the diffusion of pixels. The simulation analysis shows that the encryption scheme proposed in this paper has good encryption effect, and the numerical results verify that it has higher security than some of the latest cryptosystems.

This paper proposes a novel tweak-cube color image encryption scheme jointly manipulated by chaos and hyper-chaos. One-dimensional (1D) chaotic maps are effortless to operate, but the key space is relatively small. The hyperchaotic system has complex dynamics properties, which are capable of compensating for the defects of 1D chaotic maps. Thus, we first raise an improved 1D chaotic map with an increased key space. Then, we associate it with a four-dimensional (4D) hyperchaotic system to generate the key streams and further rotate and shift the rows and columns of each component of Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) for the color image. The permuting mode is to disturb the original position of the pixels by mimicking the way of twisting the Rubik’s cube. Moreover, the key stream updated by the plain images is also utilized for diffusion and scramble at the bit level. As a consequence, our cryptosystem enhances the security without at the expense of increasing time cost.

Cellular automaton (CA) has a lot of inherent features, such as simple regular structure, local interaction, random-like behavior and massive parallelism, which make it a good candidate to design cryptosystems. Therefore, a number of CA-based image encryption systems have been proposed, though the drawbacks of small key space and weak security in one-dimensional (1D) CA cryptosystems are obvious. In this paper, a novel image encryption scheme is presented using a two-dimensional (2D) CA with nonlinear balanced rules. During the whole process of encryption, the confusion operation is performed by the nonlinear rule of CA, while the diffusion operation is achieved by the local interactions among cells. So confusion and diffusion are well integrated in our proposed scheme. The corresponding simulations and analyses illustrate that the scheme has quite prominent cryptographic properties as well as high security.

As image is an important way of information representation, researchers pay more and more attention on image encryption. In order to improve the performance of image encryption, a novel image encryption scheme based on a hybrid cascaded chaotic system and sectoral segmentation is proposed in this paper. Hybrid cascaded chaotic system has a larger key space, higher complexity, more sensitivity to initial conditions. Four chaotic sequences relevant to a plain image are generated by this system, which strengthen plaintext correlation and the randomness. During the scrambling process, sectoral segmentation focuses on how to extract a sequence from the disk storing data, which can not only reduce the correlation between the three components of the image, but also hide image information to a large extent. Further, a DNA algorithm is used in the diffusion process. Simulation shows that the proposed scheme can effectively resist various attacks and improve the encryption performance.

This paper presents an improved cryptanalysis of a chaos-based image encryption scheme, which integrated permutation, diffusion, and linear transformation process. It was found that the equivalent key streams and all the unknown parameters of the cryptosystem can be recovered by our chosen-plaintext attack algorithm. Both a theoretical analysis and an experimental validation are given in detail. Based on the analysis of the defects in the original cryptosystem, an improved color image encryption scheme was further developed. By using an image content–related approach in generating diffusion arrays and the process of interweaving diffusion and confusion, the security of the cryptosystem was enhanced. The experimental results and security analysis demonstrate the security superiority of the improved cryptosystem.
