Abstract

With rapid technology development, data sizes are increasing and more powerful hardware structures are needed to process these data. An alternative solution for this process is to parallel the transactions to be realized, to provide the time gain, increase the efficiency and reduce the transaction costs. In this article, a new chaos-based parallel encryption algorithm design is presented to meet this requirements. In the study, a new random number generator (RNG) and chaos-based parallel encryption algorithm are developed. Using developed RNG, confusion and encryption of pixel in images have been realized. Also parallel computing has been used to increase security and speedup the encryption. With the new parallel encryption algorithm, the security and performance tests of the image encryption application and the encryption process have been made. In addition, the evaluated performance of the parallel computing is described in speedup and efficiency.
