Abstract
This paper presents a novel image security system based on the replacement of the pixel values using recursive cellular automata (CA) substitution. This proposed image encryption method exhibits the properties of confusion and diffusion because of the characteristics of CA substitution are flexible. The salient features of the proposed image encryption method are its losslessness, symmetric private key encryption, very large number of secret keys, and key-dependent pixel value replacement. Simulation results obtained using some color and gray-level images clearly demonstrate the strong performance of the proposed image security system.
