In modern era, which requires the use of networks in the transmission of data across distances, the transport or storage of such data is required to be safe. The protection methods are developed to ensure data security. New schemes are proposed that merge crypto graphical principles with other systems to enhance information security. Chaos maps are one of interesting systems which are merged with cryptography for better encryption performance. Biometrics is considered an effective element in many access security systems. In this paper, two systems which are fingerprint biometrics and chaos logistic map are combined in the encryption of a text message to produce strong cipher that can withstand many types of attacks. The histogram analysis of ciphertext shows that the resulted cipher is robust. Each character in the plaintext has different representations in the ciphertext even if the characters are repeated through the message. The strength of generated cipher was measured through brute force attackers, they were unable to deduce the key from the knowledge about pairs of plaintext- ciphertext due to the fact that each occurrence of characters in the message will have different shift value, and as a result a diverse representation will be obtained for same characters of the message.
Steganography is a technique to hide a secret message within a different multimedia carrier so that the secret message cannot be identified. The goals of steganography techniques include improvements in imperceptibility, information hiding, capacity, security, and robustness. In spite of numerous secure methodologies that have been introduced, there are ongoing attempts to develop these techniques to make them more secure and robust. This paper introduces a color image steganographic method based on a secret map, namely 3-D cat. The proposed method aims to embed data using a secure structure of chaotic steganography, ensuring better security. Rather than using the complete image for data hiding, the selection of

On the internet, photos are used and shared by millions of individuals for both private and business reasons. Utilizing encryption methods to change the original image into an unintelligible or scrambled version is one way to achieve safe image transfer over the network. Cryptographic approaches based on chaotic logistic theory provide several new and promising options for developing secure Image encryption methods. The main aim of this paper is to build a secure system for encrypting gray and color images. The proposed system consists of two stages, the first stage is the encryption process, in which the keys are genera
... Show MoreCryptography can be thought of as a toolbox, where potential attackers gain access to various computing resources and technologies to try to compute key values. In modern cryptography, the strength of the encryption algorithm is only determined by the size of the key. Therefore, our goal is to create a strong key value that has a minimum bit length that will be useful in light encryption. Using elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) with Rubik's cube and image density, the image colors are combined and distorted, and by using the Chaotic Logistics Map and Image Density with a secret key, the Rubik's cubes for the image are encrypted, obtaining a secure image against attacks. ECC itself is a powerful algorithm that generates a pair of p

The global stability of the equilibrium points is analyzed using Routh-Hurwitz criterion and Lyapunov direct method. Chaos phenomena is characterized by attractors and bifurcation diagram. The effect of the controlling parameter of the model is investigated theoretically and numerically.
There are large numbers of weakness in the generated keys of security algorithms. This paper includes a new algorithm to generate key of 5120 bits for a new proposed cryptography algorithm for 10 rounds that combine neural networks and chaos theory (1D logistic map). Two methods of neural networks (NN) are employed as Adaline and Hopfield and the results are combined through several sequential operation. Carefully integrating high quality random number generators from neural networks and chaos theory to obtain suitable key for randomness and complexity.
The need to exchange large amounts of real-time data is constantly increasing in wireless communication. While traditional radio transceivers are not cost-effective and their components should be integrated, software-defined radio (SDR) ones have opened up a new class of wireless technologies with high security. This study aims to design an SDR transceiver was built using one type of modulation, which is 16 QAM, and adding a security subsystem using one type of chaos map, which is a logistic map, because it is a very simple nonlinear dynamical equations that generate a random key and EXCLUSIVE OR with the originally transmitted data to protect data through the transmission. At th

The main objective is to reduce storage space, reduce transportation costs and maintain good quality. In current research work, a simple effective methodology is proposed for the purpose of compressing color art digital images and obtaining a low bit rate by compressing the matrix resulting from the scalar quantization process (reducing the number of bits from 24 to 8 bits) using displacement coding and then compressing the remainder using the Mabel ZF algorithm Welch LZW. The proposed methodology maintains the quality of the reconstructed image. Macroscopic and
Information is an essential and valuable object in all systems. The more information you have about your issue, the better you can conform to the world around you. Moreover, information recognizes companies and provides influence that helps one company be more effective than another. So, protecting this information using better security controls and providing a high level of access to authorized parties becomes an urgent need. As a result, many algorithms and encryption techniques have been developed to provide a high level of protection for system information. Therefore, this paper presents an enhancement to the Blowfish algorithm as one of the cryptography techniques. Then it proposes an enhancement for increasing efficiency
