摘要

Chaos has been attracted much attention in current research of image encryption. In this paper, we change the location of pixels and pixel values through the combination of chaos with DNA coding. First of all, we transform the digital image into DNA coding matrix based on DNA code rules. Secondly, we divided this matrix into four sub matrixes, and disorder these sub matrixes through logistic chaotic sequence. Then, we scramble the sub matrixes by adding new logistic chaotic sequences and get the new sub matrixes. Finally, we join all scrambled DNA sub-matrixes in a DNA sequence and decode the scramble DNA matrix to image matrix. The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is effective, and it has wide secret key space, strong sensibility, high security and good ability of resisting statistic attack.
