“…The results of this scheme are competitive with the results presented in several publications and leave room for possible improvements, for example, the use of deep learning, the formation of more complex objective functions using more than two properties. An improved version of the work established in [24] was proposed in [25]. This work proposed the cryptanalysis of an image encryption scheme, in which the formation of the substitution boxes was performed using a combination of chaotic maps, involving Lorenz [26] and Rossler [27].…”

The main component of a cryptographic system that allows us to ensure its strength against attacks, is the substitution box. The strength of this component can be validated by various metrics, one of them being the nonlinearity. To this end, it is essential to develop a design for substitution boxes that allows us to guarantee compliance with this metric. In this work, we implemented a hybrid between the stochastic fractal search algorithm in conjunction with opposition-based learning. This design is supported by sequential model algorithm configuration for the proper parameters configuration. We obtained substitution boxes of high nonlinearity in comparison with other works based on metaheuristics and chaotic schemes. The proposed substitution box is evaluated using bijectivity, the strict avalanche criterion, nonlinearity, linear probability, differential probability and bit-independence criterion, which demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed approach.

“…Fridrich utilized the Baker map nine years later, in 1998, to publish a meristic block image cryptosystem, the first time parameters were included and discretized into a finite rectangular lattice of points to form a two-dimensional chaotic map [4], [46]. Because of their instability and sensitivity to beginning circumstances, chaotic systems are utilized in cryptography for randomization [47]. Image cryptography employs various chaotic maps sensitive to seeds and control variables [48].…”

Confusion and diffusion are two main concepts in cryptography that affect the quality of encryption and resistance to various attacks. Both of these concepts are influenced by the quality of the keystream used. Keystream generation needs to involve plain images as one way to bind sensitivity to plain images. But when it involves plain images directly, encryption security has negative side effects. So this research proposes to perform a diffusion operation with a logistic map on a plain image before generating the keystream. Not only using one keystream, the proposed method also uses three other keystreams and Arnold transform whose input parameters are processed by hash operations. Two keystreams are generated using the four-dimensional Lorenz system for the permutation of column and row image pixels. Next, sixteen Arnold transforms with different parameters are used for bit permutation. The last keystream is generated with a Henon map to carry out the diffusion stage two so that a cipher image is produced. Based on the testing results, the proposed method has satisfactory encryption results that are resistant to various attacks, especially brute force, statistical, and differential attacks.

This article presents a novel four-dimensional autonomous fractional-order chaotic system (FOCS) with multi-nonlinearity terms. Several dynamics, such as the chaotic attractors, equilibrium points, fractal dimension, Lyapunov exponent, and bifurcation diagrams of this new FOCS, are studied analytically and numerically. Adaptive control laws are derived based on Lyapunov theory to achieve chaos synchronization between two identical new FOCSs with an uncertain parameter. For these two identical FOCSs, one represents the master and the other is the slave. The uncertain parameter in the slave side was estimated corresponding to the equivalent master parameter. Next, this FOCS and its synchronization were realized by a feasible electronic circuit and tested using Multisim software. In addition, a microcontroller (Arduino Due) was used to implement the suggested system and the developed synchronization technique to demonstrate its digital applicability in real-world applications. Furthermore, based on the developed synchronization mechanism, a secure communication scheme was constructed. Finally, the security analysis metric tests were investigated through histograms and spectrograms analysis to confirm the security strength of the employed communication system. Numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and possibility of using this new FOCS in high-level security communication systems. Furthermore, the secure communication system is highly resistant to pirate attacks. A good agreement between simulation and experimental results is obtained, showing that the new FOCS can be used in real-world applications.
