The rapid expansion of digital communication and multimedia technologies has necessitated robust methods for securing image data. Among various approaches, chaos-based image encryption has emerged as a promising field, leveraging the inherent unpredictability and sensitivity of chaotic systems to enhance encryption strength. This special issue aims to bring together cutting-edge research, novel methodologies, and practical applications in this multidisciplinary domain.
The scope of this issue encompasses theoretical advancements, algorithmic innovations, and real-world implementations of chaos-based encryption techniques.
- Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
- Chaos theory in cryptography
- Hybrid encryption methods
- Lightweight encryption for resource-constrained devices
- Applications in secure multimedia transmission
- Studies addressing the challenges of scalability, efficiency, and resistance to emerging cryptographic attacks
Through this special issue, we aim to foster collaboration among researchers in cryptography, image processing, and nonlinear dynamics, propelling the development of secure and efficient encryption frameworks to meet the demands of an increasingly interconnected digital world.
