Abstract

In this paper, based on chaotic dynamical systems coupled with pseudo-random permutations and built using a three-layer architecture, a new color image cryptosystem is proposed. The first layer process performs a confusion using a bitwise XOR of the original image and a Piece Wise Linear Chaotic Map (PWLCM). The second layer process further enhances the consequent confusion using a one-to-one permutation function over the ring Z/nZ. The third and final layer process performs a diffusion using an enhanced cipher block-chaining mode (ECBC). Evaluation of the proposed cryptosystem proves that with low complexity the diffusion chaotically and sequentially changes the pixels of the image and proves that the avalanche effect is fully ensured. It follows that a high robustness against different attacks is guaranteed.
