Multimedia encryption innovation is one of the primary ways of securely and privately guaranteeing the security of media transmission. There are many advantages when utilizing the attributes of chaos, for example, arbitrariness, consistency, ergodicity, and initial condition affectability, for any covert multimedia transmission. Additionally, many more benefits can be introduced with the exceptional space compliance, unique information, and processing capability of real mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA). In this article, color image encryption employs a confusion process based on a hybrid chaotic map, first to split each channel of color images into n-clusters; then to create global shuffling over the whole image; and finally, to apply intrapixel shuffling in each cluster, which results in very disordered pixels in the encrypted image. Then, it utilizes the rationale of human mitochondrial genome mtDNA to diffuse the previously confused pixel values. Hypothetical examination and trial results demonstrate that the anticipated scheme exhibits outstanding encryption, as well as successfully opposes chosen/known plain text, statistical, and differential attacks.

A color image encryption algorithm based on chaotic maps is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is based on two bio-operations: crossover and mutation. To enhance the robustness against differential attacks, the mutated image is subjected to scrambling process operated on the pixel values of the image using a random sequence. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is capable of generating encrypted images with uniform distribution of the pixel values and very low correlation coefficients of adjacent pixels. It is very sensitive to any change in the secret key values. The results show that the algorithm is robust to statistical and differential attacks.

Security of image communication is more and more important in many applications such as the transmission of military and medical images. To meet the requirement, a new color image encryption algorithm using a new one-dimension (1D) chaotic map was proposed recently, which can resist various attacks because the range of the new chaotic map is larger than that of the previous ones. In our study, the security of the new original method is analyzed and a novel attack method is proposed. It is demonstrated that the scheme is not secure under chosen-plaintext attack, by which the encrypted image can be successfully converted into the corresponding plaintext image without any error.

Based on the classic quadratic map (CQM) with abundant bifurcations and periodic windows, a new 3D improved coupling quadratic map (3D-ICQM) is constructed, and its phase diagram, Lyapunov exponent (LE) and randomness testing by TestU01 demonstrated that it has better ergodicity, more complex nonlinear behavior, larger chaotic range and better randomness. To investigate its application in cryptography, a 3D-ICQM based color image encryption algorithm with round key expansion is designed. To further enhance the randomness of key stream, the hash value of intermediate cipher of the previous round is converted into new initial values and fed back into 3D-ICQM, to generate the key stream for the current round. The security and statistical analyses demonstrated that the encryption scheme has better security performance than several existing algorithms.
