A Color Image Encryption Technique Based on a Substitution-Permutation Network

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 193))

Abstract

In this paper we have proposed and tested an image encryption technique consisting of matrix transformation, pixel diffusion and a permutation box. Since the matrix transformation, which produces both confusion and diffusion, is linear, the pixel diffusion and permutation have been introduced so as to make the technique nonlinear. This technique is specifically designed for sensitive fields like medicine where misinterpretation could result in loss of life. One apt application of this technique is its use in PACS for secure storage and transfer of medical images. The uniqueness of our technique is that it is ciphertext sensitive so that decryption doesn’t yield a recognizable image in case there is an error during transmission. The proposed technique gives good parametric and sensitivity results proving itself an eligible candidate for image encryption.
