Hybrid image encryption: leveraging DNA sequencing and Lorenz chaotic dynamics for enhanced security
摘要
In an era of increasing data transmission and storage demands, traditional encryption techniques are increasingly challenged by advancements in computing power and cryptanalysis. This paper introduces a powerful hybrid image encryption scheme that synergizes DNA computing with Lorenz chaotic dynamics to achieve high levels of security and efficiency. By encoding image pixels as long DNA sequences, scrambling them with a Lorenz chaotic map, and performing DNA-based operations, the proposed method disrupts predictable patterns and reinforces encryption strength. Experimental evaluations reveal that the scheme offers an exceptionally large key space of
