Asymmetric color cryptosystem using polarization selective diffractive optical element and structured phase mask

Sudheesh K. Rajput, Naveen Kumar Nishchal

A single channel asymmetric color image encryption scheme is proposed that uses an amplitude- and phase- truncation approach with interference of polarized wavefronts. Instead of commonly used random phase masks, wavelength-dependent structured phase masks (SPM) are used in the fractional Fourier transform domain for image encoding. The primary color components bonded with different SPMs are combined into one grayscale image using convolution. We then apply the amplitude and phase truncation to the fractional spectrum, which helps generate unique decryption keys. The encrypted image bonded with a different SPM is then encoded into a polarization selective diffractive optical element. The proposed scheme alleviates the alignment problem of interference and does not need iterative encoding and offers multiple levels of security. The effect of a special attack to the proposed asymmetric cryptosystem has been studied. To measure the effectiveness of the proposed method, we calculated the mean square error between the original and the decrypted images. The computer simulation results support the proposed idea.

Phase-Modulated Optical System With Sparse Representation for Information Encoding and Authentication

Wen Chen, Xudong Chen, Adrian Stern +1 more

We develop a phase-modulated optical system with sparse representation for information encoding and authentication. The optical cryptosystem is developed with cascaded phase-only masks, and the plaintext is encoded into the cascaded phase-only masks based on an iterative phase retrieval algorithm during the encryption. Two simple strategies are developed to generate sparse data: The sparse data are randomly generated from the extracted phase-only masks, and sparse data are randomly generated from the plaintext. These two sparsity strategies are respectively used in the proposed optical security system, and the decrypted images cannot visually render information about the plaintext. Optical authentication method is further applied to verify the decrypted images. It is illustrated that the optical authentication operation with sparsity strategy can provide an additional security layer for the optical security system.

Compressive sensing based robust multispectral double-image encryption

Nitin Rawat, Byoung‐Ho Kim, Inbarasan Muniraj +2 more

We demonstrate a multispectral double-image-based cryptosystem that exploits only a tiny number of random white noise samples for proper decryption. Primarily, one of the two downsampled images is converted into the phase function after being shuffled by Arnold transform (AT), while the other image is modulated as an amplitude-based image after AT. Consecutively, a full double-image encryption can be achieved by employing classical double random phase encryption (DRPE) technique in the fractional Fourier transform domain with corresponding fractional orders. In this study, the encrypted complex data is randomly sampled via compressive sensing (CS) framework by which only 25% of the sparse white noise samples are being reserved to realize decryption with zero or small errors. As a consequence, together with correct phase keys, fractional orders and proper inverse AT operators, lpminimization must be utilized to decrypt the original information. Thus, in addition to the perfect image reconstruction, the proposed cryptosystem provides an additional layer of security to the conventional DRPE system. Both the mathematical and numerical simulations were carried out to verify the feasibility as well as the robustness of the proposed system. The simulation results are presented in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on integrating CS with encrypted complex samples for information security.
