Abstract

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm to encrypt image database. The proposed algorithm generates a unique key for every image at the time of encryption/decryption to make encryption algorithm robust against attacks. The encrypted image appears chaotic and random; and thereby does not reveal any features of original image. It presents a mechanism for a secure image database transfer over insecure channel. It uses least significant bit insertion method to make the encrypted image visually unsuspicious.
