Summary: Cryptanalysis plays a crucial role in the design of image cryptographic systems. In this study, a two-round image cryptographic system was analyzed and found to have vulnerabilities that allowed successful decryption of encrypted images through chosen-plaintext attacks. The encryption scheme was improved to enhance security, and the improved system demonstrated better resilience against chosen-plaintext attacks while maintaining the same encryption performance as the original scheme.

Summary: This article analyzes an image encryption algorithm and identifies its vulnerability. It is found that the equivalent key streams can be cracked through a chosen-plaintext attack, resulting in decoding the original chaotic encryption algorithm. Finally, an improved algorithm is proposed to overcome this defect, providing resistance against chosen-plaintext attacks and achieving the encryption effect of a one-time pad.

Summary: Fractional-order chaos is complex and has attracted attention in secure communication applications. While a color image encryption algorithm using a fractional-order hyperchaotic system was found to be cryptographically secure, it was also discovered to have inherent security flaws that can be exploited through a chosen-plaintext attack method.

Summary: This article proposes a JPEG image encryption scheme with adaptive key and run consistency of MCUs, and presents a chosen-plaintext attack (CPA) on this encryption scheme. The adaptive key can be reproduced from the encrypted image, enabling the construction of plaintext images with the same adaptive key. The existence of run consistency of MCUs between the original image and the encrypted image facilitates rapid estimation, and a single swap for the runs of MCUs with RCM is designed to improve estimation accuracy. Detailed cryptanalytic results indicate that this encryption scheme can only be used for perceptual encryption and does not provide content protection for digital images. Furthermore, applications of the CPA to break other encryption schemes with RCM are presented.

Summary: A new chaotic image encryption technique based on multiple discrete dynamic maps was proposed recently, claiming to provide excellent privacy for traditional digital images. However, through cryptanalysis, it was found that there is no strong correlation between the key and the plain image, leading to the collapse of the cryptosystem. As a result, two chosen-plaintext attack methods were proposed to break the encryption system, requiring a certain number of pairs of plain and cipher images. Simulation results showed the effectiveness of these two schemes.

Summary: Wireless multimedia communications have made significant progress in recent years, leading to an increasing demand for more secure media transmission to protect multimedia information. Image encryption systems based on chaotic maps are considered the most secure and trustworthy, due to the inherent properties in such types of multimedia contents. This research performed differential cryptanalysis on a cryptosystem based on a 3D logistic map and 3D Cat map, and successfully proposed a cryptanalysis attack by exploiting vulnerabilities in the studied cryptosystem.

Summary: The article aims to analyze the cryptography of chaos-based techniques using an anti-codifying mechanism. Chaos is considered a secure form of randomness in information security. Many cryptosystems have robust security against classical attacks but may have vulnerabilities in their structure. A recent image encryption scheme based on a compound coupled logistic chaotic map was found to have security flaws. In this study, a chosen-plaintext attack was performed on the system and an anti-codifying technique for secure data transmission was proposed. Simulation and experimental results show that the suggested improvements can resist classical attacks.

Summary: The sharing and querying of personal genomic sequences have become increasingly important in the field of biomedical research due to the accumulation of large-scale data. However, institutions are often hesitant to share DNA datasets due to privacy concerns and the sensitivity of DNA. To address this issue, a secure query strategy on encrypted DNA datasets called EncGD is proposed. This method aims to achieve verifiable privacy-preserving queries and reliable updates on multi-source dynamic DNA datasets. Experimental results show that EncGD outperforms two state-of-the-art schemes in terms of time and space costs.
