Different from the traditional DNA encryption methods, our algorithm is not use complex biological operation, but just uses the idea of DNA subsequence operation (such as elongation operation, truncation operation, and deletion operation). And then, do the DNA addition operation under the Chen's Hyper-chaotic map in this image cipher. The simulation experimental results and security analysis show that our algorithm not only has good encryption effect, but also has the ability of resisting exhaustive attack and statistical attack.     

Breaking a novel image fusion encryption algorithm based on DNA sequence operation and hyper-chaotic system

Recently, a novel image fusion encryption algorithm based on DNA sequence operation and hyper-chaotic system was proposed. It was reported that the scheme can be broken with 4mn/3 +1 chosen plain-images and the corresponding cipher-images, where mn is the size of the plain-image. This paper re-evaluates the security of the encryption scheme and finds that the encryption scheme can be broken with less than ⌈ log ₂(4mn)/2 ⌉ +1 chosen plain-images, even three in many cases. The effectiveness of the proposed chosen-plaintext attack is supported by theoretical analysis, and verified by experimental results.     

Cryptanalyzing a novel image fusion encryption algorithm based on DNA sequence operation and hyper-chaotic system

Recently, an image fusion encryption algorithm [Optik 124 (18) (2013) 3596–3600] was proposed based on DNA sequence operation and hyper-chaotic system. The security of this algorithm depends mainly on both five keys as the initial conditions of hyper-chaotic system and a key image. In this paper, we cryptanalyze the algorithm and find that two chaotic keystream determined by the five keys keep unchanged for different image encryption processes. The two chaotic keystream can be revealed and the computational complexity is approximately O(mn), where m and n represent the height and width, respectively. In addition, the key image needs to be changed for each encryption. Finally, experimental results also verify our idea.     

A novel chaotic image encryption scheme using DNA sequence operations

In this paper, we propose a novel image encryption scheme based on DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) sequence operations and chaotic system. Firstly, we perform bitwise exclusive OR operation on the pixels of the plain image using the pseudorandom sequences produced by the spatiotemporal chaos system, i.e., CML (coupled map lattice). Secondly, a DNA matrix is obtained by encoding the confused image using a kind of DNA encoding rule. Then we generate the new initial conditions of the CML according to this DNA matrix and the previous initial conditions, which can make the encryption result closely depend on every pixel of the plain image. Thirdly, the rows and columns of the DNA matrix are permuted. Then, the permuted DNA matrix is confused once again. At last, after decoding the confused DNA matrix using a kind of DNA decoding rule, we obtain the ciphered image. Experimental results and theoretical analysis show that the scheme is able to resist various attacks, so it has extraordinarily high security.     

A novel chaos-based image encryption algorithm using DNA sequence operations

An image encryption algorithm based on chaotic system and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence operations is proposed in this paper. First, the plain image is encoded into a DNA matrix, and then a new wave-based permutation scheme is performed on it. The chaotic sequences produced by 2D Logistic chaotic map are employed for row circular permutation (RCP) and column circular permutation (CCP). Initial values and parameters of the chaotic system are calculated by the SHA 256 hash of the plain image and the given values. Then, a row-by-row image diffusion method at DNA level is applied. A key matrix generated from the chaotic map is used to fuse the confused DNA matrix; also the initial values and system parameters of the chaotic system are renewed by the hamming distance of the plain image. Finally, after decoding the diffused DNA matrix, we obtain the cipher image. The DNA encoding/decoding rules of the plain image and the key matrix are determined by the plain image. Experimental results and security analyses both confirm that the proposed algorithm has not only an excellent encryption result but also resists various typical attacks.     

A novel color image encryption scheme using fractional-order hyperchaotic system and DNA sequence operations

In this paper, Adomian decomposition method(ADM) with high accuracy and fast convergence is introduced to solve the fractional-order piecewise-linear(PWL) hyperchaotic system. Based on the obtained hyperchaotic sequences,a novel color image encryption algorithm is proposed by employing a hybrid model of bidirectional circular permutation and DNA masking. In this scheme, the pixel positions of image are scrambled by circular permutation, and the pixel values are substituted by DNA sequence operations. In the DNA sequence operations, addition and substraction operations are performed according to traditional addition and subtraction in the binary, and two rounds of addition rules are used to encrypt the pixel values. The simulation results and security analysis show that the hyperchaotic map is suitable for image encryption, and the proposed encryption algorithm has good encryption effect and strong key sensitivity. It can resist brute-force attack, statistical attack, differential attack, known-plaintext, and chosen-plaintext attacks.     

A novel bit-level image encryption algorithm based on chaotic maps

Recently, a number of chaos-based image encryption algorithms have been proposed at the pixel level, but little research at the bit level has been conducted. This paper presents a novel bit-level image encryption algorithm that is based on piecewise linear chaotic maps (PWLCM). First, the plain image is transformed into two binary sequences of the same size. Second, a new diffusion strategy is introduced to diffuse the two sequences mutually. Then, we swap the binary elements in the two sequences by the control of a chaotic map, which can permute the bits in one bitplane into any other bitplane. The proposed algorithm has excellent encryption performance with only one round. The simulation results and performance analysis show that the proposed algorithm is both secure and reliable for image encryption.

The paper studies a recently developed evolutionary-based image encryption algorithm. A novel image encryption algorithm based on a hybrid model of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) masking, a genetic algorithm (GA) and a logistic map is proposed. This study uses DNA and logistic map functions to create the number of initial DNA masks and applies GA to determine the best mask for encryption. The significant advantage of this approach is improving the quality of DNA masks to obtain the best mask that is compatible with plain images. The experimental results and computer simulations both confirm that the proposed scheme not only demonstrates excellent encryption but also resists various typical attacks.

Novel image encryption algorithm based on cycle shift and chaotic system

In this paper, a novel image encryption algorithm is proposed. The cycle shift in bits of pixels and the chaotic system are employed for the encryption of the proposed scheme. For cycle shift operations, random integers with the same size of the original image are produced to scramble the plaintext image. Moreover, the scrambled image effects the initial values of the chaotic system for the further encryption process, which increases the sensitivity of plaintext images of the scheme. The scrambled image is encrypted into the ciphered image by the keys which are produced by the chaotic system. The simulation experiments and theoretical analyses indicate that the proposed scheme is superior and able to resist exhaustive attack and statistical attack.     

A novel scheme for image encryption based on 2D piecewise chaotic maps

In this paper, a hierarchy of two-dimensional piecewise nonlinear chaotic maps with an invariant measure is introduced. These maps have interesting features such as invariant measure, ergodicity and the possibility of K-S entropy calculation. Then by using significant properties of these chaotic maps such as ergodicity, sensitivity to initial condition and control parameter, one-way computation and random like behavior, we present a new scheme for image encryption. Based on all analysis and experimental results, it can be concluded that, this scheme is efficient, practicable and reliable, with high potential to be adopted for network security and secure communications. Although the two-dimensional piecewise nonlinear chaotic maps presented in this paper aims at image encryption, it is not just limited to this area and can be widely applied in other information security fields.

A novel chaotic image encryption algorithm using block scrambling and dynamic index based diffusion

In this paper, we propose a novel chaotic image encryption algorithm which involves a block image scrambling scheme and a new dynamic index based diffusion scheme. Firstly, the original image is divided into two equal blocks by vertical or horizontal directions. Then, we use the chaos matrix to construct X coordinate, Y coordinate and swapping control tables. By searching the X coordinate and Y coordinate tables, the swapping position of the processing pixel is located. The swapping control table is used to control the swapping of the pixel in the current block or the other block. Finally, the dynamic index scheme is applied to the diffusing of the scrambled image. The simulation results and performance analysis show that the proposed algorithm has an excellent safety performance with only one round.

Based on complex Chen and complex Lorenz systems, a novel color image encryption algorithm is proposed. The larger chaotic ranges and more complex behaviors of complex chaotic systems, which compared with real chaotic systems could additionally enhance the security and enlarge key space of color image encryption. The encryption algorithm is comprised of three step processes. In the permutation process, the pixels of plain image are scrambled via two-dimensional and one-dimensional permutation processes among RGB channels individually. In the diffusion process, the exclusive-or (XOR for short) operation is employed to conceal pixels information. Finally, the mixing RGB channels are used to achieve a multilevel encryption. The security analysis and experimental simulations demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is large enough to resist the brute-force attack and has excellent encryption performance.

In the proposed method, the P-box is chosen as the same size of plain-image, which shuffles the positions of pixels totally. The keystream generated by skew tent chaotic map is related to the plain-image.

It can be seen that this algorithm is efficient and reliable, with high potential to be adopted for network security and secure communications.     

Color-image encryption scheme based on channel fusion and spherical diffraction

A secure encryption scheme for color images based on channel fusion and spherical diffraction is proposed in this paper. In the proposed encryption scheme, a channel fusion technology based on the discrete wavelet transformation is used to transform color images into single-channel grayscale images, firstly. In the process of transformation, the hyperchaotic system is used to permutate and diffuse the information of red—green—blue (RGB) channels to reduce the correlation of channels. Then the fused image is encrypted by spherical diffraction transform. Finally, the complex-valued diffraction result is decomposed into two real parts by the improved equal module decomposition, which are the ciphertext and the private key. Compared with the traditional color image encryption schemes that encrypt RGB channels separately, the proposed scheme is highly secure and robust.

A novel image encryption algorithm based on logistic map is proposed recently. In this paper, a chosen plaintext attack on this algorithm is presented and some other flaws of the algorithm are pointed out. Theoretical analysis and experimental simulation indicate that the plain image can be recovered exactly from the cipher image without secret key. Therefore, this algorithm is not secure enough for practical applications. An improvement is proposed to enhance the security of the original algorithm. Simulation results and theoretical analysis show that the improved scheme has expected cryptographic properties and is more secure than the original algorithm.
