Abstract
We explore the use of two chaotic systems (Bernoulli shift map and Zizag map) coupled with deoxyribonucleic acid coding in an encryption scheme for medical images in this paper. The scheme consists of two main phases: Chaotic key generation and DNA diffusion. Firstly, the message digest algorithm 5 hash function is performed on the plain medical image and the hash value used in combination with the value of an input ASCII string to generate initial conditions and control parameters for two chaotic systems (Bernoulli shift map and Zigzag map). These chaotic systems are subsequently used to produce two separate key matrices. Secondly, a row-by-row diffusion operation between the plain image matrix and the two chaotic key matrices, using the DNA XOR algebraic operation is performed in an alternating pattern to produce the cipher image. The logistic map is used to select the DNA encoding and decoding rules for each row. Experimental results of statistical, differential and key analyses demonstrate that the proposed scheme is robust and provides resistance to various forms of attacks.
