Abstract
One-dimensional and three-dimensional piecewise chaotic maps are used to propose an image-encipher technique in this article. First, the logistic map is used to construct the pseudo-random sequence. After that, this sequence is used to scramble the plain image. Next, the three-dimensional piecewise chaotic map has produced a mask of the chaotic sequence. After doing some preprocessing steps on the mask, a bit-wise XOR operation with the mask is applied to the shuffled image. The suggested algorithm is used to encipher and decipher a different range of images. To check the algorithm security and efficiency, the algorithm performance was calculated using multiple statistical tests and compared to several recent algorithms. Furthermore, numerical simulations and experimental data are also used to validate the proposed algorithm's resistance to various attacks.
