Abstract
A novel image encryption algorithm is proposed that combines the SHA-3 hash function and two chaotic systems: the hyper-chaotic Lorenz and Chen systems. First, 384 bit keystream hash values are obtained by applying SHA-3 to plaintext. The sensitivity of the SHA-3 algorithm and chaotic systems ensures the effect of a one-time pad. Second, the color image is expanded into three-dimensional space. During permutation, it undergoes plane-plane displacements in the x, y and z dimensions. During diffusion, we use the adjacent pixel dataset and corresponding chaotic value to encrypt each pixel. Finally, the structure of alternating between permutation and diffusion is applied to enhance the level of security. Furthermore, we design techniques to improve the algorithm's encryption speed. Our experimental simulations show that the proposed cryptosystem achieves excellent encryption performance and can resist brute-force, statistical, and chosen-plaintext attacks.
