Abstract

Abstract: Currently, there are many studies have conducted on developing security of the digital image in order to protect such data while they are sending on the internet. This work aims to propose a new approach based on a hybrid model of the Tinkerbell chaotic map, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and cellular automata (CA). DNA rules, DNA sequence XOR operator and CA rules are used simultaneously to encrypt the plain-image pixels. To determine rule number in DNA sequence and also CA, a 2-dimension Tinkerbell chaotic map is employed. Experimental results and computer simulations, both confirm that the proposed scheme not only demonstrates outstanding encryption, but also resists various typical attacks. Highlights: This paper using Tinkerbell chaotic map, DNA sequence and CA, simultaneously. DNA rules addition its XOR operator and CA rules are used to encrypt plain-image. DNA employs Tinkerbell chaotic map to choose its rule number. This presented method outperform recent available methods in literature.
