Abstract
The challenge to which the encryption of multimedia data needs to respond is ensuring the security of data intensive video stream in an efficient way. Unlike full data encryption, selective encryption manages to achieve this by encrypting only a part of the data stream, while providing a satisfactory level of video security. This optimizes the processing time and the size of encrypted data. Regardless of the encryption technique, there is a lack of cryptographic synchronization when providing random access to the selected part of the encrypted multimedia stream. In this paper we propose a novel and efficient method of cryptographic synchronization as an extension to the H.265/HEVC crypto encoder in order to support random access in selectively encrypted video stream.
