An Image Encryption Scheme Using 2D Generalized Sawtooth Maps

In this paper, a new image encryption scheme based on 2D generalized sawtooth map is proposed. Utilizing the chaoticnature of 2D generalized sawtooth maps, image pixel positions are scrambled and image pixels gray values are changedto encrypt the plain-images. Experimental results have been carried out with detailed analysis to demonstrate that theproposed image encryption scheme possesses large key space to resist brute-force attack and possesses good statisticalproperties to frustrate statistical analysis attacks.
