In this article, we investigate image security for transmission in digital networks using a hybrid coding based on juxtaposed encryption and compression. We have proposed a new approach that integrates a dynamic Hill-Cipher encryption added to the step of quantizing of JPEG compression. A step by step demonstration is given in order to show the functioning of the crypto compression scheme constructed. This explanation justifies how to strategically integrate different operations of our crypto compression system. The effectiveness and robustness of our scheme is validated by measuring its security strength, its computational cost and the quality of reconstructed images (PSNR). The results showed that our new idea by both its generic fast encryption and its simple adaptation provides a reasonable complexity and a good compromise between security and compression rate, this crypto compression scheme is efficient and recommended for networks with low bandwidth especially for low-power devices.
In this paper, we design a lightweight hash function suitable for fast applications. The proposed hash function is intended to be used as a secondary component in cryptographic and pseudo-cryptographic applications (e.g., pseudorandom number generators, cryptosystems), where the required property is the fastness in addition to an acceptable security level. Based on simple logical operations used in designing primitive functions, and based on a Feistel-like network, the proposed hash function exhibits excellent performance (fastness) and good enough security properties.
