“…Even though, a lot of research has been done for compressing [2], or encryption the input image [7,8], a scant amount of work considers simultaneous compression and encryption of media files that are to be transmitted [9], through wireless media sensor network. Various cryptographic algorithms can be used to encrypt an image [10] but, for WMSN we require an algorithm with less computational complexity and high reliability. For this purpose, we have chosen Secured Force encryption technique [11].…”

In this paper, the advantages of discrete cosine transform and discrete wavelet transform have been harnessed by considering them together for compression, followed by an energy efficient Secured Force encryption technique. This was done in order to simultaneously compress and encrypt the image that has to be transmitted through Wireless Media Sensor Network (WMSN). The proposed technique provides better and faster compression as compared to the existing techniques. Results show that, there is an average increase of 4 % in compression with respect to DCT based compression and DWT based compression. Also, in the proposed approach, Chroma cr. matrix is used for quantization, which has reduced the total processing time by a huge amount as compared to the other quantization matrices.

“…However, the communication channels used for sharing data are unfortunately insecure; and as such the question of information security arises. To address the issue of information security, various cryptographic methods (Rajput et al 2013;Solak 2013;Azarderakhsh et al 2014) are being used. Unfortunately, cryptographic algorithms do not always provide secure means of communication, given that the disguised form of encrypted data can cause suspicion and increases the chances of malicious attack.…”

This paper presents a new crypto domain data hiding technique based on Intermediate Significant Bit Plane Embedding (ISBPE). The cover image is encrypted; the information to be secured is scrambled, and then embedded in the Intermediate Significant Bit (ISB) planes of encrypted cover image, at the locations determined by a Pseudorandom Address Vector (PAV). The pseudorandom embedding of the scrambled data in the ISB planes of encrypted image results in a three tier security of the data to be secured. The ISBPE embedding results in an important advantage that the proposed scheme becomes completely robust to commonly employed attack of Least Significant Bit (LSB) removal/replacement. A novel concept of embedding a very small size fragile watermark in addition to the secret information has been used which facilitates early tamper detection. This feature could save crucial processor time in critical situations of national security issues/warfare etc. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme is more robust to various signal processing attacks like Joint Picture Expert Group compression, Additive White Gaussian Noise and 'salt and pepper' noise as compared to conventional LSB based embedding techniques. Comparison results with some well-known techniques show that besides providing high degree of security and robustness to various malicious attacks the proposed technique is capable of embedding a fairly large amount of secret data in the host image while maintaining a good stego-image quality.

“…Image encryption technique scrambles the pixels of the image and decreases the correlation among the pixels, so that the encrypted image is hard to understand [1]. However, the encrypted image may arouse an attacker's attention to guess the secret behind encryption and seek various ways to crack or break the encrypted content, which heavily threatens the security of the original information.…”

This paper proposes a novel tamper detection, localization, and recovery scheme for encrypted images with Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) and Compressive Sensing (CS). The original image is first transformed into DWT domain and divided into important part, that is, low-frequency part, and unimportant part, that is, high-frequency part. For low-frequency part contains the main information of image, traditional chaotic encryption is employed. Then, high-frequency part is encrypted with CS to vacate space for watermark. The scheme takes the processed original image content as watermark, from which the characteristic digest values are generated. Comparing with the existing image authentication algorithms, the proposed scheme can realize not only tamper detection and localization but also tamper recovery. Moreover, tamper recovery is based on block division and the recovery accuracy varies with the contents that are possibly tampered. If either the watermark or low-frequency part is tampered, the recovery accuracy is 100%. The experimental results show that the scheme can not only distinguish the type of tamper and find the tampered blocks but also recover the main information of the original image. With great robustness and security, the scheme can adequately meet the need of secure image transmission under unreliable conditions.
