An Efficient Image Encryption Method Based on Enhanced Josephus Problem and a Non-Invertible Economic Map

International Journal of Computing, 2023
As an increasing number of digital images are created and transmitted over the internet, there is growing concern over their unauthorized use, which has a big impact on both security and privacy concerns. In this research, we provide a fast and secure image encryption scheme by using an enhanced Josephus problem and two-dimensional non-invertible ...
