To address the problems of the high complexity and low security of the existing image encryption algorithms, this paper proposes a dynamic key chaotic image encryption algorithm with low complexity and high security associated with plaintext. Firstly, the RGB components of the color image are read, and the RGB components are normalized to obtain the key that is closely related to the plaintext, and then the Arnold transform is used to stretch and fold the RGB components of the color image to change the position of the pixel points in space, so as to destroy the correlation between the adjacent pixel points of the image. Next, the generated sequences are independently encrypted with the Arnold-transformed RGB matrix. Finally, the three encrypted images are combined to obtain the final encrypted image. Since the key acquisition of this encryption algorithm is related to the plaintext, it is possible to achieve one key per image, so the key acquisition is dynamic. This encryption algorithm introduces chaotic mapping, so that the key space size is 10180. The key acquisition is closely related to the plaintext, which makes the ciphertext more random and resistant to differential attacks, and ensures that the ciphertext is more secure after encryption. The experiments show that the algorithm can encrypt the image effectively and can resist attack on the encrypted image.

Image Encryption Algorithm

In this article, we introduced a digital image encryption algorithm based on the chaotic mapping designed by Xiong et al. In their paper, the authors theoretically analyzed the algorithm and pointed out that the algorithm did not need to have the prior knowledge of the orbital distribution and one can select any chaotic model. In this way, the algorithm greatly expanded the cryptographic space and greatly reduced the number of iterations of the mapping. Since the algorithm has many characteristics, for instance, it is sensitive to the secret key, its key space is big, the pixel is well distributed after being encrypted, etc., the security of the encrypted images can be assured effectively. However, since the algorithm applied the image scrambling for encryption, and did not take the chosen-plaintext attacks into consideration, the algorithm is relatively weak in resisting the chosen-plaintext attacks. Therefore, we put forward a kind of image replacement method based on chaos, which can resist the chosen-plaintext attacks. And the experimental simulation proves that this algorithm not only has many characteristics, for instance, it is sensitive to the secret key, its key space is big, the pixel is well distributed after being encrypted, etc., but also can resist the chosen-plaintext attacks effectively. In the meanwhile, the algorithm is very sensitive to the small changes of the plaintexts, and its encrypted images will completely lose the features of the original ones.

Image Encryption Algorithm

To prevent the leakage of image content, image encryption technology has received increasing attention. Most current algorithms are only suitable for the images of certain types and cannot update keys in a timely manner. To tackle such problems, we propose an adaptive chaotic image encryption algorithm based on RNA and pixel depth. Firstly, a novel chaotic system, two-dimensional improved Logistic-adjusted-Sine map is designed. Then, we propose a three-dimensional adaptive Arnold transform for scrambling. Secondly, keys are generated by the hash values of the plain image and current time to achieve one-image, one-key, and one-time pad simultaneously. Thirdly, we build a pre-permuted RNA cube for 3D adaptive scrambling by pixel depth, chaotic sequences, and adaptive RNA coding. Finally, selective diffusion combined with pixel depth and RNA operations is performed, in which the RNA operators are determined by the chemical structure and properties of amino acids. Pixel depth is integrated into the whole procedure of parameter generation, scrambling, and diffusion. Experiments and algorithm analyses show that our algorithm has strong security, desirable performance, and a broader scope of application.
