Abstract

Chaotic systems have been widely adopted for image encryption as means of securely transmitting confidential information. However, literature suggests that some encryption algorithms and transmission channels may be vulnerable, which raises concerns about the efficacy of using chaotic systems for image encryption. To address these concerns, this paper proposes an approach based on dual authentication to enhance information security and mitigate image attacks. The proposed method involves encrypting the image using a secure cipher and mixing the resulting encrypted image with a chaotic signal generated by two synchronized Rössler systems before transmitting it over a channel. The original image can be recovered by reversing the encryption and transmission process. The method was successfully tested using the Mean Structural Similarity Index (MSSIM), and a second security layer showed an increase in entropy, which is a strong indicator of good random properties. The proposed scheme has been proven to be secure in encrypting and transmitting benchmark images.
