In the paper we apply graph vertex coloring for verification of secret shares. We start from showing how to convert any graph into the number and vice versa. Next, theoretical result concerning properties of n-colorable graphs is stated and…
In (k, n) visual secret sharing (VSS) scheme, secret image can be visually reconstructed when k or more participants printing theirs shares on transparencies and stack them together. No secret is revealed with fewer than k shares. The…
Inspired by Naor et al.'s visual secret sharing (VSS) scheme, a novel n out of n quantum visual secret sharing (QVSS) scheme is proposed, which consists of two phases: sharing process and recovering process. In the first process, the color…
The increased growth in the use of transmission of multimedia medical contents over unsecured and open networks provides insecurity for confidential patient information over these networks. Digital encryption of medical images before…
Almost all known secret sharing schemes work on numbers. Such methods will have difficulty in sharing graphs since the number of graphs increases exponentially with the number of nodes. We propose a secret sharing scheme for graphs where we…
In this paper a secret message/image transmission technique has been proposed through (2, 2) visual cryptographic share which is non-interpretable in general. A binary image is taken as cover image and authenticating message/image has been…
This paper proposes a visual encryption method to ensure the confidentiality of digital images. The model used is based on an autoencoder using aConvolutional Neural Network (CNN) to ensure the protection of the user data on both the sender…
This paper presents a new scheme for hiding a secret message in binary images. Given m*n cover image block, the new scheme can conceal as many as log(m*n +1) bits of data in block, by changing at most one bit in the block. The hiding…
This article presents block-wise image encryption for the vision transformer and its applications. Perceptual image encryption for deep learning enables us not only to protect the visual information of plain images but to also embed unique…
Secret image sharing deals with splitting confidential images into several shares and the original image can be reconstructed from the qualified subset of the shares. Secret sharing schemes are used in transmission and storage of private…
This paper introduces a new concept of textual message encryption and decryption through a pool of randomized symmetric key and the dual layer cryptosystem with the concept of visual cryptography and steganography. A textual message is…
A {k,n}-threshold scheme based on two-dimensional memory cellular automata is proposed to share images in a secret way. This method allows to encode an image into n shared images so that only qualified subsets of k or more shares can…
Visual cryptography schemes (VCSs) belong to a category of secret image sharing schemes that do not require cryptographic knowledge for decryption, instead relying directly on the human visual system. Among VCSs, random grid-based VCS…
In this paper, we investigate the best pixel expansion of the various models of visual cryptography schemes. In this regard, we consider visual cryptography schemes introduced by Tzeng and Hu [13]. In such a model, only minimal qualified…
Steganography is a process that hides secrete message or secrete hologram or secrete video or secrete image whose mere presence within the source data should be undetectable and use for transmitting secret information over public media.…
Hiding a secret is needed in many situations. Secret sharing plays an important role in protecting information from getting lost, stolen, or destroyed and has been applicable in recent years. A secret sharing scheme is a cryptographic…
In this paper, we propose a novel content based-image retrieval scheme allowing the mixed use of encrypted and plain images for the first time. In the proposed scheme, images are encrypted by a block-scrambling method developed for…
Recently, a novel image encryption scheme based on improved hyperchaotic sequences was proposed. A pseudo-random number sequence, generated by a hyper-chaos system, is used to determine two involved encryption functions, bitwise exclusive…
Secret sharing is a new alternative for outsourcing data in a secure way.It avoids the need for time consuming encryption decryption process and also the complexity involved in key management.The data must also be protected from untrusted…
