Visual Cryptography Based on an Interferometric Encryption Technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sang-Su Lee et al. 373 This paper presents a new method for a visual cryptography scheme that uses phase masks and an interferometer. To encrypt a binary image, we divided it into an arbitrary number of slides and encrypted them using an XOR process with a random key or keys. The phase mask for each encrypted image was fabricated under the proposed phase-assignment rule. For decryption, phase masks were placed on any path of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Through optical experiments, we confirmed that a secret binary image that was sliced could be recovered by the proposed method.

A Visual Cryptographic Encryption Technique for Securing Medical Images
The increased growth in the use of transmission of multimedia medical contents over unsecured and open networks provides insecurity for confidential patient information over these networks. Digital encryption of medical images before transmission and storage is proposed as a way to effectively provide protection of patient information. Encryption before watermarking of these images is necessary...
متن کاملAn efficient secure channel coding scheme based on polar codes
In this paper, we propose a new framework for joint encryption encoding scheme based on polar codes, namely efficient and secure joint secret key encryption channel coding scheme. The issue of using new coding structure, i.e. polar codes in Rao-Nam (RN) like schemes is addressed. Cryptanalysis methods show that the proposed scheme has an acceptable level of security with a relatively smaller ke...
