Abstract

This paper proposes an image encryption scheme using the combination of chaos, hyper-chaos, and DNA sequence operation. The proposed scheme performs three stages of encryption operations. Those are selection-level hyper-chaotic sequence based DNA-shuffling operation, key-image based DNA-diffusion operation, and hyper-chaotic sequence based DNA-shuffling operation. The advantages of this scheme are higher key space, higher confusion or randomness of pixels, higher sensitivity to the keys and plaintext pixels, stronger resistivity to the noises, and lossless encryption and decryption. Moreover, selection-level hyper-chaotic sequence based DNA-shuffling operation generates more complexities in the confusion process which increases the strength of encryptions and decryptions. The computer simulation and security analyses confirm the good encryption results of the proposed scheme and strong resistivity to the commonly used attacks.
