“…With the development of bioinformatics, some image encryption algorithms based on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) have emerged since Adleman completed the first experiment on DNA computing [28], due to the properties of DNA: massive parallelism, huge storage, and ultralow power consumption [29][30][31][32][33][34]. Typically, DNA-based image encryption consists of three steps: DNA encoding, DNA operations, and DNA decoding.…”

In the era of the Internet, image encryption plays an important role in information security. Chaotic systems and DNA operations have been proven to be powerful for image encryption. To further enhance the security of image, in this paper, we propose a novel algorithm that combines the fractional-order hyperchaotic Lorenz system and DNA computing (FOHCLDNA) for image encryption. Specifically, the algorithm consists of four parts: firstly, we use a fractional-order hyperchaotic Lorenz system to generate a pseudorandom sequence that will be utilized during the whole encryption process; secondly, a simple but effective diffusion scheme is performed to spread the little change in one pixel to all the other pixels; thirdly, the plain image is encoded by DNA rules and corresponding DNA operations are performed; finally, global permutation and 2D and 3D permutation are performed on pixels, bits, and acid bases. The extensive experimental results on eight publicly available testing images demonstrate that the encryption algorithm can achieve state-of-the-art performance in terms of security and robustness when compared with some existing methods, showing that the FOHCLDNA is promising for image encryption.

“…The SHA-3 function is also called the hash function [21], which is the most basic components in modern cryptosystem, and the input data is variable length and the output is fixed length. Messages can be generated with hash functions to generate a message digest that is appended to a message or stored with a message to prevent the message from being tampered with in transit and storage.…”

Based on Hill matrix and dynamic DNA encoding, an image encryption method is proposed. First, this method combines an elliptic curve with a hyper-chaos sequence to fabricate the Hill cipher matrix, and the plaintext image is permuted and encrypted. Second, the dynamic DNA encoding technique is applied to diffuse the gray values of this plaintext image. Finally, hyper-chaos sequences are employed to complete the confusion and diffusion of the image. The experimental results show that the presented method can not only defend against brute-force attacks and statistical attacks but also resist plaintext attacks; in addition, the method has the merits of fast encryption speed, good encryption effects, and easy implementation.

Researchers have gained a deeper understanding of DNA-based encryption and its effectiveness in enhancing information security in recent years. However, there are many theoretical and technical issues about DNA-based encryption that need to be addressed before it can be effectively used in the field of security. Currently, the most popular DNA-based encryption schemes are based on traditional cryptography and the integration of existing DNA technology. These schemes are not completely based on DNA computing and biotechnology. Herein, as inspired by nature, encryption based on DNA has been developed, which is, in turn, based on two fundamental biological axioms about DNA sequencing: 1) DNA sequencing is difficult under the conditions of not knowing the correct sequencing primers and probes, and 2) without knowing the correct probe, it is difficult to decipher precisely and sequence the information of unknown and mixed DNA/peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes, which only differ in nucleotide sequence, arranged on DNA chips (microarrays). In essence, when creating DNA-based encryption by means of biological technologies, such as DNA chips and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, the encryption method discussed herein cannot be decrypted, unless the DNA/PNA probe or PCR amplification is known. The biological analysis, mathematical analysis, and simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the method, which provides much stronger security and reliability than that of traditional encryption methods.
