Description
Summary:Recently, image encryption has emerged as an extremely urgent need to provide high protection for secure images against being used without any authorization. In the present paper, the 3-cell chaotic map known as cycling chaos was employed for image encryption based on biological operations. In order to increase security of the proposed method, the 120-bits secret key is used. DNA Sequences and cycling chaos were used to scramble the positions of the image pixels, and then the pixels grey values were modified using a mask DNA generated by cycling chaos. The obtained results demonstrated high security of the proposed method, and it was found acceptably resistant against different well-known attacks.
