Cryptanalysis and improvement of a class of hyperchaos based image encryption algorithms
对一类超混沌图像加密算法的密码分析与改进

The security of a class of hyperchaotic image encryption algorithms is analysed. The results show that the shuffling process can be separated from the confusion process, and the formulas of encryption are simple, which makes the ciphertext cannot resist the attacks from chosen plaintext and ciphertext. Then we propose an improved and enhanced algorithm based on hyperchaos. The improved algorithm includes two rounds of encryption operation. The theoretical analyses and the experimental results indicate that the improved algorithm can overcome these flaws and has better cryptographic performances in resisting differential attacks and speed of encryption.
