Abstract

Protecting transmitted multimedia data such as images is a significant concern. This work proposes an encryption algorithm for greyscale images using a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG), DNA coding, and pixel sum. The proposed approach is implemented on a Genesys 2 FPGA using minimal hardware resources and can operate at a maximum frequency of 110.8 MHz. In addition, several performance evaluation tests are conducted for multiple images, including statistical analysis of the encrypted image, keyspace analysis, and differential attack analysis. The system is compared to recent works with respect to encryption quality and used hardware resources. The proposed scheme outperformed recent chaos-based image encryption schemes.
