Using chaotic logistic keys in message cryptography is a popular technique; it provides a high level of message security by protecting it from being hacked. This technique becomes inefficient when the message length is big, because a chaotic key of big length requires much time to be generated. To overcome this problem this paper research will provide a novel method for short and long messages cryptography. The new method will use a complicated private key which will provide a huge key space to resist any kids of attacks. The private key will be used to divide the message into equal blocks (except the last block), and it will be also used to generate the index keys which are required to apply encryption and decryption, these keys will be generated from the obtained chaotic logistic keys. The proposed method will use a simple encryption and decryption functions, these functions will use the index keys values to distribute the source message to form the encrypted message and to retrie...

Gray and color digital images are used in many vital applications; such as fingerprint or face recognition. These applications require dealing with the digital image as a single image, even if this image is rotated with different rotation angles. This paper deals with using the digital image histogram to set image features and for multiple models of image rotation. A detailed study and analysis of wavelet packet tree decomposition will be introduced; various experiments will be done to show how to stabilize the image features for multiple modes of the image.

Protecting digital images is an important task, because images may be secret or may be contain valuable secret information. In this paper research a simple, efficient and high secure method of digital images protection will be introduced. The method will use a chaotic logistic map model with a selected chaotic parameter to generate a lookup table, which will be used in the encryption and decryption phases. The proposed method can use one lookup table to encrypt-decrypt color images, or it can use three lookup tables to encrypt-decrypt each color channel. The method will secure the encrypted image by using a complicated private key, which will provide a suitable key space capable to resist hacking attacks, the method outputs will be very sensitive to the selected private key contents, any minor changes in these contents in the decryption phase will be considered as a hacking attempt by producing a damaged decrypted image. It will be shown how using lookup table simplifies the process...

LSB2 method of data steganography is a popular method of secret data hiding, this method is simple and capable of hiding long messages in a covering color image. LSB2 is not secure and it cannot protect the embedded secret message from being hacked.

Regression analysis, in statistic a modelling, is a set of statical processes that can be used to estimate the relationship between a dependent variable, commonly known as the outcome or response, and more independent variables generally called predictors of covariant. On the other hand, autoregression, which is based on regression equations, is a sequential model that uses time to predict the next step data from the previous step. Given the importance of accurate modelling and reliable predictions. in this paper we have analyzed the most popular methods used for data prediction. Nonlinear autoregressive methods were introduced, and then the machine deep learning approach was used to apply prediction based on a selected input data set. The mean square error was calculated for various artificial neural networks architecture to reach the optimal architecture, which minimized the error. Different artificial neural network (ANN) architectures were trained, tested, and validated using va...

Salt and pepper noise is one of the most common types of noise that affects color and gray digital images, as this noise negatively affects the characteristics of the image and becomes blurred. And since the digital image is used in vital and important applications, it is necessary to provide an effective method that reduces the negative effects of noise. An easy and effective method will be presented that reduces the negative effects of salt and pepper noise, regardless of the noise ratio value in the digital image. In the proposed method, a set of windows will be used that is generated from the output of the affected image padding process, and these windows will be used to check the pixel is noise or not to be processed if this pixel is noise, using the specified window and applying the process of the median filter to this window. The proposed method will be implemented using various color and gray images, the quality parameters MSE and PSNR will be calculated. The obtained result...

Increasing the message protection degree is a vital issue. In this paper research a new, simple, secure and efficient method of message cryptography will be proposed. The method will use two private keys for encryption decryption. The first key is to be generated from a secret image_key; the second key is to be generated using chaotic logistic map model. The two key will form a complicated complex key which cannot be hacked, thus will secure the transmitted messages from being hacked. The PK will be very sensitive to any changes: image_key, selected image color, message length and chaotic parameters. Any minor change in the decryption phase will generate new PK, and a corrupted damaged decrypted message will be produced. A set of analyses (sensitivity, quality and throughput) will be performed to prove the improvements and efficiency provides by the proposed method.

Chaotic logistic map can be used to generate private key with different dimensions, this can be easily used to secure the process of data cryptography, required to encrypt-decrypt messages, images or audio files. Some of the encrypted-decrypted data (messages images) requires inter values keys, other like audio files require fraction values keys. In this research paper we will perform a detailed study of chaotic logistic map model to give some valuable recommendation of many aspects such as: the suitable range of the growth rate parameter, the suitable range of the initial generation, the sensitivity feature, the required time to generate private keys. It will be show how to generate 1D and 2D private keys with integer values and with fractional values, these key will be generated taking in mined the process of optimizing the generation time and the selected length of key which can optimize the process of cryptography.

Many data cryptography methods are based on DES; these methods have a lot of disadvantages such as fixed block size, fixed private key length, multiple rounds and sometimes low level of security. In this research paper a method of secret messages cryptography will be introduced. It will be shown that the proposed method can be easily used to apply data cryptography for short, medium and long messages keeping the values of the quality parameters (MSE, PSN and CC) acceptable. The method will use three image_key to generate the required private keys needed to calculate the number of rotation digits used in character rotation. The images are to be kept in secret and it is possible to change them any time without changing the operations used in the proposed method. The proposed method will be compared with DES to show the improvements provided by the proposed method.

Color digital images are one of the most common types of digital data circulated through various social media, due to their use in important vital applications. The digital image may be confidential or of a personal nature, or it may provide a carrier of confidential data, which makes providing a secure method of protection for it extremely important in order to protect the image from penetration and protect it from any side that has nothing to do with the image. In this research, a secure method will be presented to protect data, and this method will be multi-purpose, as it can be used to protect short and long secret messages and protect digital images regardless of their type or size. The high level and difficult to penetrate degree of protection will be achieved through the use of two colored images to generate two secret private keys to be used in the process of encrypting and decrypting confidential data. This method will be applied in order to prove the extent to which this m...

Standard methods used in the encryption and decryption process are implemented to protect confidential data. These methods require many arithmetic and logical operations that negatively affect the performance of the encryption process. In addition, they use private keys of a specific length, in addition to the fixed length of the data block used in encryption, which may provide the possibility of penetration of these methods, thus decreasing the level of security. In this research paper, a new method of digital image cryptography is introduced. This method is based on using a color image as an image_key to generate a sophisticated matrix private key (MPK) that cannot be hacked. The proposed method uses an initial state to set the required parameters, with secret information needed to generate the private key. The data-block size is variable, and the complicity of the MPK depends on the number of selected rounds and the data-block size. The proposed method is appropriate for publicat...

Color digital images are greatly affected by salt and pepper noise, which negatively affects the clarity of the image and its characteristics. In this paper research we will investigate various filter used to deal with salt and pepper noise, a comparison will be done between these filters according to the calculated values of MSE and PSNR. An improvement procedure will be added to each filter to show how this improvement will enhance the values of MSE and PSNR and thus enhance the quality of the denoised image. Various noise densities will be experimented and it will be shown how median filter can be highly recommended to reduce the negative effects of salt and pepper noise.

Least significant bit method is one of the most popular methods of data steganography, this method is very simple and provides good values for MSE and PSNR. LSB method is not secure enough and the embedded secret message can be easily hacked by any person with any programming experience. To enhance the security level of LSB and to protect the secret message from being hacked and addition stage is recommended. This stage adds a necessary protection without affecting the quality parameters and the efficiency of LSB. The protection process is based on using a complex private key, this key is generated by sender depending on the block size and the selected image size and kept in secret to be used by the receiver, the private key can be changed or updated any time, when the needs arise.

Multiple methods are used to hide secret messages in digital color images, and the most important and most common is the least significant bit (LSB) method. The LSB method is a known and exposed method, and anyone with programming experience can retrieve the secret message embedded in the digital image. In this paper research we will add some enhancements to improve the security level of LSB method to protect the embedded secret message from being hacked. A simple method of secret message cryptography will be used to encrypt the secret message before bedding it using LSB method. The method will be based on using color image as an image_key; this image_key will be resized to generate the needed secret private key used to encrypt-decrypt secret message. The length and the contents of the generated private key will dynamically change depending on the message length and the selected image_key. The selected image_key will be kept in secret without transmission and will be known only by t...
