Cryptography techniques need some algorithms for encryption of data. Many of available encryption techniques are used for textual data, a few of encryption methods are used for multimedia data; however, this algorithms that are used for textual data may be inefficient for multimedia. The most popular symmetric key algorithms are Data Encryption Standard (DES). However, DES may not be suitable for multimedia because it consumes times. Encryption and decryption of these data require different methods. This paper proposes an encryption and decryption of data by using the nature of Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) in signals analysis, based on multi-order FrFT. A different indicators to evaluate the security of an encryption technique have been discussed. These indicators are: sensitivity proposed techniques for the key, the complexity of the processes, and statistical analysis. The key is formed by combination of order of FrFT. The encrypted data is obtained by the summation of different orders. Numerical simulation results are given to demonstrate this proposed method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
