Abstract

Basic idea of encryption is to encrypt the pixels of an image in such a manner that the image becomes chaotic and indistinguishable. In this paper, we have done exploratory study on image encryption techniques through 2D cellular automata (single layer and double layer) which create chaos on pixels of considered image. A comparative analysis on effectiveness of scrambling technique is provided by scrambling degree measurement parameters, i.e., gray difference degree (GDD) and correlation coefficient. Experimental results showed that the 2D cellular automata (single layer)-based encryption gives better result than 2D cellular automata (double layer).
