Chapter 1: Introduction
Image security is an essential aspect of cybersecurity, ensuring that digital images remain
secure from
unauthorized access, duplication, or modification. The advent of advanced imaging
technologies has introduced both
opportunities and vulnerabilities, making it imperative to adopt robust security measures.
This chapter explores the
concept of cryptography, its applications in image protection, and why this topic was chosen
as a critical area of study.
Chapter 2: Review of Literature
This chapter summarizes key studies in the field of image security and cryptography.
Researchers have
focused on encryption algorithms like AES, RSA, and DES for image protection, comparing
their effectiveness in various
contexts. Literature also highlights hybrid approaches and their potential for improved
security and efficiency.
Chapter 3: Research Objectives and Methodology
Objectives:
1. To evaluate the effectiveness of cryptographic algorithms in image security.
2. To
identify vulnerabilities in existing methods.
3. To propose innovative solutions for enhanced image protection.
Methodology:
The study employs a mix of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Data is collected from
research
databases, and experimental analysis is conducted using tools like MATLAB and Python.
Chapter 4: Data Analysis and Results
This chapter presents the results of applying cryptographic algorithms to digital images.
Performance
metrics like encryption speed, decryption accuracy, and resistance to attacks are analyzed.
Results demonstrate the
superiority of hybrid methods in terms of efficiency and security.
Chapter 5: Findings and Conclusion
Findings reveal that while traditional cryptographic methods provide a baseline level of
security,
hybrid approaches significantly enhance protection against modern threats. The study
concludes that integrating
cryptography with emerging technologies like blockchain can offer a promising future for
image security.
