Encryption method and security analysis of medical images based on stream cipher enhanced logical mapping

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Medical image security has been paid more attention in the medical field. OBJECTIVE: In order to achieve a higher security level of medical image encryption, this paper proposes a stream cipher enhanced logic mapping encryption method. METHODS: According to the theory of stream cipher, this method uses Chebyshev map to form encryption key. A series of coding operations are used to set the initial value before image chaos processing. Combining with logical mapping, the original image information is encrypted by chaos from X and Y dimensions. RESULTS: The experimental results show that the NPCR value of the encrypted image is 0.9874 after the blood cells are encrypted. CONCLUSIONS: All four evaluation methods fully prove that this method has excellent encryption performance.
