Review on Latin Square Image Cipher Based Encryption

Abstract

We introduce a symmetric-key Latin square image cipher (LSIC) for grayscale, colour
images as well as videos. Here is a list of contributions to the image encryption circle, A)
Latin Square Image encryption primitives are developed including, Latin Square whitening,
S-BOX and P-BOX, B) A new way is provided for integration of probabilistic encryption in
encryption of images by embedding it with random noise in the least significant image bitplane and C) Therefore, a LSIC is constructed with the above Latin Square Image Encryption
primitives, on a keyed Latin Square in a brand new loom like substitution-permutation
network. Hence, the proposed Latin Square Image Cipher may achieve several wanted
properties of a safe cipher including, high key sensitivities, evenly distributed cipher text, a
sufficient key space, very good diffusion and confusion properties, and lastly robustness
against channel noise.
