Double random phase encryption (DRPE) is one of the well-known optical encryption techniques, and many techniques with DRPE have been developed for information security. However, most of these techniques may not solve the fundamental security problem caused by using fixed phase masks for DRPE. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a key phase mask updating scheme for DRPE to improve its security, where a spatial light modulator (SLM) is used to implement key phase mask updating. In the proposed scheme, updated key data are obtained by using previous image data and the first phase mask used in encryption. The SLM with the updated key is used as the second phase mask for encryption. We provide a detailed description of the method of encryption and decryption for a DRPE system using the proposed key updating scheme, and simulation results are also shown to verify that the proposed key updating scheme can enhance the security of the original DRPE.

In this paper, we propose an improved practical encryption and fault-tolerance decryption method using a non-negative value key and random function obtained with a white noise by using iterative phase wrapping method. A phase wrapping operating key, which is generated by the product of arbitrary random phase images and an original phase image. is zero-padded and Fourier transformed. Fourier operating key is then obtained by taking the real-valued data from this Fourier transformed image. Also the random phase wrapping operating key is made from these arbitrary random phase images and the same iterative phase wrapping method. We obtain a Fourier random operating key through the same method in the encryption process. For practical transmission of encryption and decryption keys via Internet, these keys should be intensity maps with non-negative values. The encryption key and the decryption key to meet this requirement are generated by the addition of the absolute of its minimum value to each of Fourier keys, respectively. The decryption based on 2-f setup with spatial filter is simply performed by the inverse Fourier transform of the multiplication between the encryption key and the decryption key and also can be used as a current spatial light modulator technology by phase encoding of the non-negative values. Computer simulations show the validity of the encryption method and the robust decryption system in the proposed technique.

Whitebox encryption technique is a method of preventing exposure of encryption keys by mixing encryption key information with a software-based encryption algorithm. Whitebox encryption technique is attracting attention as a technology that replaces conventional hardware-based security encryption techniques by making it difficult to infer confidential data and keys by accessing memory with unauthorized reverse engineering analysis. However, in the encryption and decryption process, a large lookup table is used to hide computational results and encryption keys, resulting in a problem of slow encryption and increased memory size. In particular, it is difficult to apply whitebox cryptography to low-cost, low-power, and light-weight Internet of Things products due to limited memory space and battery capacity. In addition, in a network environment that requires real-time service support, the response delay time increases due to the encryption/decryption speed of the whitebox encryption, resulting in deterioration of communication efficiency. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze whether the AES-based whitebox(WBC-AES) proposed by S.Chow can satisfy the speed and memory requirements based on the experimental results.

This paper presents an experimental result showing the encryption and decryption times of the AES and LEA algorithms. AES and LEA algorithms are international and Korean standards for block ciphers, respectively. Through experiments, this paper investigates the applicability of the LEA algorithm for light weight IoT devices. In order to measure the encryption and decryption times, 256-bit and 128-bit secret keys were randomly generated for AES and LEA, respectively. Under our test environment using an Arduino microcontroller, the AES algorithm takes about 45ms for encryption and decryption processes, whereas the LEA algorithm takes about 4ms. Even though processing times of each algorithm may vary much under different implementation and test environments, this experimental result shows that the LEA algorithm can be applied to many light weight IoT devices for security goals.

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.

Recently, the spread of IoT technology has been spreading, and it has been applied to all industrial fields such as home / home appliance / medical care. Due to the low specification, low power consumption characteristic and communication data characteristic of IoT, implementation of existing algorithm is difficult thing. From this reason, we have proposed for the first time that encryption and decryption can be proceeded by introducing a kind of variable length bit XOR operation method which changes a variable the bit length value by using carry up and carry down method. We confirmed the practicality of encrypting short message data frequently processed by IoT device / QR code / RFID / NFC without changing the size of data before and after encryption.

In this paper, double encryption technology of image based on scramble operation and phase-shifting digital holography is proposed. For the purpose, we perform first encryption digitally using scramble operation for the to be encrypted image, and perform phase modulation to the first encrypted image. Finally, we get the secondary encryption information through the interference between the phase-shifted reference wave and phase modulated image. The decryption process proceeds in the reverse order of the encryption process. The original image is reconstructed by digitally decoding the two encrypted images through a phase shift digital holography technique that appropriately performs arithmetic processing, phase-demodulating and then using the encryption key information used in the scramble operation. The proposed cryptosystem can recover the original image only if both the key information used in the scramble operation, the distance information used in the phase shift digital holography technique, and the wavelength of the light source are known accurately.

Recently, RFID systems are spreading in various industrial areas faster but cause some serious problems of information security because of its unstable wireless communication. Moreover, traditional RFID systems have a restriction that one tag per each application object. This restriction deteriorates their usability because it is difficult to distinguish many tags without some kind of effort. Therefore, efficient information sharing of objects based on information security has to be studied for more spreading of RFID technologies. In this paper, we design a new RFID tag structure for supporting multiple objects which can be shared by many different RFID applications. We also design an encryption/decryption algorithm to protect the identifying information of objects stored in our tag structure. This algorithm is a light revision of the existing SEED algorithm which can be operated in RFID tag environment. To evaluate the performance of our algorithm, we measure the encryption and decryption times of this algorithm and compare the results with those of the original SEED algorithm.

HIGHT is an 64-bit block cipher, which is suitable for low power and ultra-light implementation that are used in the network that needs the consideration of security aspects. This paper presents a parallel key scheduler that generates the whitening keys and subkeys simultaneously for both encryption and decryption processes. We construct the reverse LFSR and key generation blocks to generate the keys for decryption process. Then, the new key scheduler is made by sharing the common logics for encryption and decryption processes to minimize the increase in hardware complexity. From the simulation results, the logic size is increased 1.31 times compared to the conventional HIGHT. However, the performance of HIGHT including the proposed key scheduler can be increased by two times compared to the conventional counterpart.
