ABSTRACT

The research in the literature on the design of image security by using Arithmetic Coding and Advanced Encryption Standard. Arithmetic Coding offers extremely high coding efficiency and it provides little or no security as traditionally implemented. We present a modified scheme that offers both security and compression of images. The system utilizes an Arithmetic Coder and Advanced Encryption Standard in which the overall length within the range allocated to each symbol is preserved. The overall system provides simultaneous compression and encryption with negligible coding efficiency by accelerated hardware implementations.
