Keywords:
Encryption, Chaotic System, Kernel Function, Decryption, Initial Conditions, Sensitivity, CorrelationAbstract
In this paper a new encryption strategy is introduced by combining Kernel functions with systems and XOR operation to make data more secure and ensure that data can be retrieved accurately. The method creates data obfuscation by placing data in higher dimensional space using Kernel functions. On the hand chaotic models add unpredictable behavior to make the system much stronger against advanced cryptographic attacks. The new system is safer than methods. It hides the information well through complicated mathematical changes. Experiments are set up. Studied to prove that the approach offers a high level of security against difficult attacks while also keeping the flexibility needed to get the original data back.The test outcomes indicate that a high NPCR value of 99.6072 signifies substantial pixel alteration during encryption, which is advantageous for security. The PSNR value (8.0996) is crucial for maintaining image quality.This value shows that little information was lost during the encryption .The optimum UACI score (31.132%–35.215%) indicates that the encrypted image has few visual distortions and artifacts.
