This paper presents a new digital watermarking scheme that combines some operators of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and the Residue Number (RN) System (RNS) to perform encryption on an image, which is embedded into a cover image for the purposes of watermarking. Thus, an image watermarking scheme uses an encrypted image. The secret image is embedded in decomposed frames of the cover image achieved by applying a three-level Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). This is to ensure that the secret information is not exposed even when there is a successful attack on the cover information. Content creators can prove ownership of the multimedia content by unveiling the secret information in a court of law. The proposed scheme was tested with sample data using MATLAB2022 and the results of the simulation show a great deal of imperceptibility and robustness as compared to similar existing schemes.展开更多

In the sanitary field, precisely in telemedicine branch, medical images play a very important role for therapeutic diagnoses. Thus, it is necessary to protect medical images data before transmission over the network to preserve their security and prevent unauthorized access. In this paper, a secure algorithm for biomedical images encryption scheme based on the combination of watermarking technique and chaotic function is proposed. In the proposed method, to achieve high security level performances, a non-blind hybrid watermarking technique with audio signal, Discrete Wavelet Transform is used;smoothness is also used as selected criteria;the iterations obtained by the chaotic sequences are essential and allow a good realization of the encryption process. One of the main advantages of chaos-based encryption schemes is the generation of a large number of key spaces to resist brute force attacks from the encryption algorithm. The experimental results presented in this paper attest to the invisibility and robustness of the proposed algorithm combining watermarking and chaos-based encryption.展开更多
