Abstract
A hyperchaotic multi-scroll piecewise linear system in R4 is binarized to generate a pseudo-random sequence which encrypt a grayscale image via symmetric-key algorithm. The sequence is analyzed throughout statistical tests according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) specifications. The scrolls of the system are the result of a switching law that changes between the saddle hyperbolic equilibria of piecewise linear systems with eigenvalues as follows: two negative real and one pair of complex conjugate eigenvalues with positive real part. Thus, the encryption quality is evaluated depending on the variation of the number of scrolls.
