AB  - In this paper, we propose a novel secure image communication system that integrates quantum key distribution and hyperchaotic encryption techniques to ensure enhanced security for both key distribution and plaintext encryption. Specifically, we leverage the B92 Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocol to secure the distribution of encryption keys, which are further processed through Galois Field (GF(2<sup>8</sup>)) operations for increased security. The encrypted plaintext is secured using a newly developed Hyper 3D Logistic Map (H3LM), a chaotic system that generates complex and unpredictable sequences, thereby ensuring strong confusion and diffusion in the encryption process. This hybrid approach offers a robust defense against quantum and classical cryptographic attacks, combining the advantages of quantum-level key distribution with the unpredictability of hyperchaos-based encryption. The proposed method demonstrates high sensitivity to key changes and resilience to noise, compression, and cropping attacks, ensuring both secure key transmission and robust image encryption.
