A new fast and simple image encryption algorithm using scan patterns and XOR
A new fast and simple image encryption algorithm using scan patterns and XOR
In this paper, a new simple and fast algorithm for image encryption is proposed. It exploits the scan patterns and function XOR in three standalone steps. The decryption procedure is similar to that of the encryption but in the reversed order. We implement and test the proposed algorithm using different sample image inputs and our experimental result and security analysis indicates the robustness and advantages of the new proposed algorithm. Using this algorithm it is possible to reproduce the original image with no loss of information for the encryption and decryption process. Algorithm is fast and simple enough to be comparable to other recent approaches, and it has passed all the security requirements and it is fast and secure to be used in very broad range of industrial applications.

Abstract
In this paper, a new simple and fast algorithm for image encryption is proposed. It exploits the scan patterns and function XOR in three standalone steps. The decryption procedure is similar to that of the encryption but in the reversed order. We implement and test the proposed algorithm using different sample image inputs and our experimental result and security analysis indicates the robustness and advantages of the new proposed algorithm. Using this algorithm it is possible to reproduce the original image with no loss of information for the encryption and decryption process. Algorithm is fast and simple enough to be comparable to other recent approaches, and it has passed all the security requirements and it is fast and secure to be used in very broad range of industrial applications.
