In this paper we propose a novel image encryption scheme. The proposed method is based on the chaos theory. Our cryptosystem uses the chaos theory to define a dynamic chaotic Look-Up Table (LUT) to compute the new value of the current pixel to cipher. Applying this process on each pixel of the plain image, we generate the encrypted image. The results of different experimental tests, such as Key space analysis, Information Entropy and Histogram analysis, show that the proposed encryption image scheme seems to be protected against various attacks. A comparison between the plain and encrypted image, in terms of correlation coefficient, proves that the plain image is very different from the encrypted one.

In recent years, characterized by the innovation of technology and the digital revolution, the field of media has become important. The transfer and exchange of multimedia data and duplication have become major concerns of researchers. Consequently, protecting copyrights and ensuring service safety is needed. Cryptography has a specific role, is to protect secret files against unauthorized access. In this paper, a hierarchical cryptosystem algorithm based on Logistic Map chaotic systems is proposed. The results show that the proposed method improves the security of the image. Experimental results on a database of 200 medical images show that the proposed method significantly gives better results.
