Optical information processing technology is characterized by high speed and parallelism, and the light features short wavelength and large information capacity; At the same time, it has various attributes including amplitude, phase, wavelength and polarization, and is a carrier of multi-dimensional information. Therefore, optical encryption is of great significance in the field of information security transmission, and is widely used in the field of image encryption. For multi-image encryption, this paper proposes a multi-image encryption algorithm based on a modified Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm (MGSA) in the Fresnel-transform domain and computational ghost imaging. First, MGSA is used to realize "one code, one key"; Second, phase function superposition and normalization are used to reduce the amount of ciphertext transmission; Finally, computational ghost imaging is used to improve the security of the whole encryption system. This method can encrypt multiple images simultaneously with high efficiency, simple calculation, safety and reliability, and less data transmission. The encryption effect of the method is evaluated by using correlation coefficient and structural similarity, and the effectiveness and security of the method are verified by simulation experiments.

Adopting an encryption function in voice over Wi-Fi service incurs problems such as additional power consumption and degradation of communication quality. To overcome these problems, a partial encryption (PE) algorithm for compressed speech was recently introduced. However, from the security point of view, the partial encryption sets (PESs) of the conventional PE algorithm still have much room for improvement. This paper proposes a new selection method for finding a smaller PES while maintaining the security level of encrypted speech. The proposed PES selection method employs the perceptual evaluation of the speech quality (PESQ) algorithm to objectively measure the distortion of speech. The proposed method is applied to the ITU-T G.729 speech codec, and content protection capability is verified by a range of tests and a reconstruction attack. The experimental results show that encrypting only 20% of the compressed bitstream is sufficient to effectively hide the entire content of speech.

We present a new scheme for optical encryption of a binary image. In our method, the original binary data page is first divided into two identical pages. In each data page, the “on” and “off” pixels are represented by two discrete phases that are 90° apart. The first page corresponds to the phase conjugation of the second page, and vice versa. In addition, the wavefront of the two data pages is changed simultaneously from planar to spherical, for better encryption. The wavefront modification is represented by an extra phase shift, which is a function of position on the wavefront. In this way the two separate pages are both encrypted, and therefore the pages cannot be distinguished in a CCD. If the first page is used as an encrypted data page, then the second page is used as the decryption key, and vice versa. The decryption can be done by simply combining the two encrypted data pages. It is shown in our experiment that encryption and decryption can be fully accomplished in the optical domain.

As awareness of personal data protection increases, various Full Disk Encryption (FDE)-based applications are being developed that real-time encryption or use virtual drive volumes to protect data on user's PC. FDE-based applications encrypt and protect the volume containing user's data. However, as disk encryption technology advances, some users are abusing FDE-based applications to encrypt evidence associated with criminal activities, which makes difficulties in digital forensic investigations. Thus, it is necessary to analyze the encryption process used in FDE-based applications and decrypt the encrypted data. In this paper, we analyze Cryptomator and Norton Ghost, which provide volume encryption and backup functions. We analyze the encrypted data structure and encryption process to classify the main data of each application and identify the encryption algorithm used for data decryption. The encryption algorithms of these applications are recently emergin gor customized encryption algorithms which are analyzed to decrypt data. User password is essential to generate a data encryption key used for decryption, and a password acquisition method is suggested using the function of each application. This supplemented the limitations of password investigation, and identifies user data by decrypting encrypted data based on the acquired password.

The Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a block cipher that encrypts a 64 bit block of plaintext into a 64 bit block of ciphertext. The DES has been a worldwide standard for 20 years since it was adopted in 1976. strong. But, due to the rapid development of hardware techniques and cryptanalysis, the DES with 64-bit key is considered to be not secure at the present time. Therefore it became necessary to increase the security of DES. The NG-DES(New Generation DES)[1] is an encryption system which upgrades the encryption security of DES by the key extension and the usage of non-linear f function. It extends not only the size of plaintext and ciphertext to 128 bit but also the Fiestel structure used in each round. This structure has a weak point that the change of each bit of plaintext does not affect all bits of ciphertext simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a modified Fiestel structure of DES and thus increased confusion and diffusion by effectively cross-connecting between outputs in a round and inputs in next round.

There are currently various file encryption systems and applications for encryption and storage of file on disk. However, the existing file encryption solutions handle encryption and decryption all at once by file or directory. In this study, we propose a system call supporting partial encryption function of the file. The user sets the partial encryption of the file by using system call interface, and writes the contents. And then the data is encrypted and stored on the disk. Also if the user sets the decryption and reads the data, the necessary part of data is decrypted by applying the user setting. According to the user setting, only the necessary part is encrypted and stored on a storage medium. As a result, the information in a secret level can be saved efficiently and securely.

In this paper, we propose the gradual encryption method of image using LFSR(Linear Feedback Shift Register) and 2D CAT(Two-Dimensional Cellular Automata Transform). First, an LFSR is used to create a PN(pseudo noise) sequence, which is identical to the size of the original image. Then the created sequence goes through an XOR operation with the original image resulting to the first encrypted image. Next, the gateway value is set to produce a 2D CAT basis function.The created basis function multiplied with the first encrypted image produces the 2D CAT encrypted image which is the final output. Lastly, the stability analysis verifies that the proposed method holds a high encryption quality status.

Fully homomorphic encryption enables algebraic operations on encrypted data, and recently, methods for approximating non-algebraic operations such as the maximum function have been studied. However, precise approximation of max-pooling operations for four or more numbers have not been researched yet. In this study, we propose a precise max-pooling approximation method using the composition of approximate polynomials of the maximum function and theoretically analyze its precision. Experimental results show that the proposed approximate max-pooling has a small amortized runtime of less than 1ms and high precision that matches the theoretical analysis.
