FPGA Realization of a Novel Hyperchaos Augmented Image Encryption Algorithm

IET Computers &Digital Techniques, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
With the rapid growth of multimedia communication, protecting image data has become increasingly critical. This article proposes a novel 3‐stage hyperchaos‐based augmented image encryption technique (3SHAIET) that utilizes a three‐stage process with chaotic systems of increasing dimensionality (e.g., six‐dimensional [6D], 8D, and 9D) to enhance ...

Memristive crypto primitive for building highly secure physical unclonable functions

Scientific Reports, 2015
Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) exploit the intrinsic complexity and irreproducibility of physical systems to generate secret information. The advantage is that PUFs have the potential to provide fundamentally higher security than traditional ...

SKE2SG: A Secure Key Establishment Scheme for Smart Grid Cyber‐Physical Systems Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography

IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory &Applications, Volume 11, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Recent proposals by Mahmood et al., Braeken et al., and Chaudhry et al. aimed at establishing secure communication in AMI, asserting their methods fulfil the requisite security criteria. This paper, however, reveals that each of these proposals exhibits security vulnerabilities and lacks sufficient features for deployment.

A Novel Image Steganographic Method Based on Enhanced PIWT and Modified Optimal Pixel Adjustment Process

IET Image Processing, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper proposes a novel image steganographic method based on an enhanced Pyramid Integer Wavelet Transform (PIWT) combined with a Modified Optimal Pixel Adjustment Process (MOPAP). The PIWT enables integer‐to‐integer transformation, avoiding floating‐point computations and improving its suitability for efficient implementation.
