The data space for audio signals is large, the correlation is strong, and the traditional encryption algorithm cannot meet the needs of efficiency and safety. To solve this problem, an audio encryption algorithm based on Chen memristor chaotic system is proposed. The core idea of the algorithm is to encrypt the audio signal into the color image information. Most of the traditional audio encryption algorithms are transmitted in the form of noise, which makes it easy to attract the attention of attackers. In this paper, a special encryption method is used to obtain higher security. Firstly, the Fast Walsh–Hadamar Transform (FWHT) is used to compress and denoise the signal. Different from the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), FWHT has good energy compression characteristics. In addition, compared with that of the triangular basis function of the Fast Fourier Transform, the rectangular basis function of the FWHT can be more effectively implemented in the digital circuit to transform the reconstructed dual-channel audio signal into the R and B layers of the digital image matrix, respectively. Furthermore, a new Chen memristor chaotic system solves the periodic window problems, such as the limited chaos range and nonuniform distribution. It can generate a mask block with high complexity and fill it into the G layer of the color image matrix to obtain a color audio image. In the next place, combining plaintext information with color audio images, interactive channel shuffling can not only weaken the correlation between adjacent samples, but also effectively resist selective plaintext attacks. Finally, the cryptographic block is used for overlapping diffusion encryption to fill the silence period of the speech signal, so as to obtain the ciphertext audio. Experimental results and comparative analysis show that the algorithm is suitable for different types of audio signals, and can resist many common cryptographic analysis attacks. Compared with that of similar audio encryption algorithms, the security index of the algorithm is better, and the efficiency of the algorithm is greatly improved.

Many purposes require communicating audio files between the users using different applications of social media. The security level of these applications is limited; at the same time many audio files are secured and must be accessed by authorized persons only, while, most present works attempt to hide single audio file in certain cover media. In this paper, a new approach of hiding three audio signals with unequal sizes in single color digital image has been proposed using the frequencies transform of this image. In the proposed approach, the Fast Fourier Transform was adopted where each audio signal is embedded in specific region with high frequencies in the frequency spectrum of the cover image to save much more details of the cover image and avoid any doubts that there is any secret information are hidden inside it. The quality of the stego-image and the extracted audio files are evaluated with the standard evaluation metric. The simulation results shown significant results of these metrics and achieve good imperceptibility and high security of the stego-image. The SNR and SPCC values are considered acceptance that means significant in terms quality and similarity of the reconstructed signal.

In recent years, scholars studied and proposed some secure color image encryption algorithms. However, the majority of the published algorithms encrypted red, green and blue (called [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for short) components independently. In the paper, we propose a color image encryption scheme based on hyperchaotic system and permutation-diffusion architecture. The encryption algorithm utilizes a block permutation which is realized by mixing [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] components to strengthen the dependence of each component. Besides, it can reduce time consumption. Then, the key streams generated by the hyperchaotic system are exploited to diffuse the pixels, the three components affect each other again. And in the diffusion process, we can get two totally different encrypted images even though we change the last pixel because the [Formula: see text] component is diffused in reverse order. The experimental results reveal that our algorithm possesses better abilities of resisting statistical attacks and differential attacks, larger key space, closer information entropy to 8, and faster encryption speed compared with other chaos-based color image encryption algorithms.

A chaotic system refers to a deterministic system with seemingly random irregular motion, and its behavior is uncertain, unrepeatable, and unpredictable. In recent years, researchers have proposed various image encryption schemes based on a single low-dimensional or high-dimensional chaotic system, but many algorithms have problems such as low security. Therefore, designing a good chaotic system and encryption scheme is very important for encryption algorithms. This paper constructs a new double chaotic system based on tent mapping and logistic mapping. In order to verify the practicability and feasibility of the new chaotic system, a displacement image encryption algorithm based on the new chaotic system was subsequently proposed. This paper proposes a displacement image encryption algorithm based on the new chaotic system. The algorithm uses an improved new nonlinear feedback function to generate two random sequences, one of which is used to generate the index sequence, the other is used to generate the encryption matrix, and the index sequence is used to control the generation of the encryption matrix required for encryption. Then, the encryption matrix and the scrambling matrix are XORed to obtain the first encryption image. Finally, a bit-shift encryption method is adopted to prevent the harm caused by key leakage and to improve the security of the algorithm. Numerical experiments show that the key space of the algorithm is not only large, but also the key sensitivity is relatively high, and it has good resistance to various attacks. The analysis shows that this algorithm has certain competitive advantages compared with other encryption algorithms.
