Abstract

Abstract : We devise a color image encryption scheme via combining hyperchaotic map, cross-plane operation and gene theory. First, the hyperchaotic map used in the encryption scheme is analyzed and studied. On the basis of the dynamics of hyperchaotic map, a color image encryption scheme is designed. At the end of the encryption process, a DNA mutation operation is used to increase the encoding images' randomness and to improve the encryption algorithm's security. Finally, simulation experiments, performance analysis, and attack tests are performed to prove the effectiveness and security of the designed algorithm. This work provides the possibility of applying chaos theory and gene theory in image encryption.
