Survey of 3D Chaotic Map Techniques for Image Encryption

Lokesh P. Gagnani, Dr. Sunita Varjani

Abstract: Encryption of images is different from that of texts due to some intrinsic features of images such as bulk data capacity and high redundancy, which are generally difficult to handle by traditional encryption methods. Due to the exceptionally desirable properties of mixing and sensitivity to initial conditions and parameters of chaotic maps, chaos-based encryption has suggested a new and efficient way to deal with the intractable problem of fast and highly secure image encryption. In this paper, the two-dimensional chaotic cat map is generalized to 3D for designing a real-time secure symmetric encryption. Various parameters for key sensitivity analysis, Statistical analysis and Differential analysis are discussed.
