• Abstract: Securing image data in IoT networks and other insecure information channels is a matter of critical concern. This paper presents a new image encryption scheme using DNA encoding, snake permutation and chaotic substitution techniques that ensures robust security of the image data with reduced computational overhead. The DNA encoding and snake permutation modules ensure effective scrambling of the pixels and result in efficient diffusion in the plaintext image. For the confusion part, the chaotic substitution technique is implemented, which substitutes the pixel values chosen randomly from 3 S-boxes. Extensive security analysis validate the efficacy of the image encryption algorithm proposed in this paper and results demonstrate that the encrypted images have an ideal information entropy of 7.9895 and an almost zero correlation coefficient of -0.001660. These results indicate a high degree of randomness and no correlation in the encrypted image.

  Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) enables computations on encrypted data, preserving confidentiality without the need for decryption. Traditional FHE methods often encrypt images by monolithic data blocks, instead of pixels. We propose and implement a pixel-level homomorphic encryption approach, iCHEETAH, based on the CKKS scheme.
