“…With respect to other JTC-based systems developed in former works [ 2 , 5 , 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ], the proposed encryption and decryption system for two images allows the simultaneous encryption of two images with a high level of security for the single real-valued encrypted image, besides retrieving high quality decrypted images, either simultaneously or separately. Our encryption and decryption system is not an iterative algorithm, the definitions of the two nonlinear operations applied on the JPS are entirely new, and the use of a new nonlinear JTC allows for breaking the linearity of former JTC-based encryption systems, aiming to obtain an encrypted image better protected against several attacks.…”
