Abstract

In the current digital era, securing image transmission is crucial to ensure data integrity, prevent tampering, and preserve confidentiality as images traverse unsecured channels. This paper presents an innovative encryption scheme that synergistically combines a two-dimensional (2-D) logistic map, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encoding, and 1-D cellular automata (CA) rules to significantly bolster encryption robustness. The proposed model initiates with the generation of a key image via the 2-D logistic map, yielding intricate chaotic sequences that fortify the encryption mechanism. DNA cryptography is employed to amplify randomness through diffusion properties, providing robust defense against various cryptographic attacks. The integration of 1-D CA rules further intensifies encryption complexity by iteratively processing DNA-encoded sequences. Experimental results substantiate that the proposed encryption scheme demonstrates exceptional endurance against a vast spectrum of attacks, affirming its superior security.
