Digital image processing and retrieving have increasingly become very popular on the Internet and getting more attention from various multimedia fields. That results in additional privacy requirements placed on efficient image matching techniques in various applications. Hence, several searching methods have been developed when confidential images are used in image matching between pairs of security agencies, most of these search methods either limited by its cost or precision. This study proposes a secure and efficient method that preserves image privacy and confidentially between two communicating parties. To retrieve an image, feature vector is extracted from the given query image, and then the similarities with the stored database images features vector are calculated to retrieve the matched images based on an indexing scheme and matching strategy. We used a secure content-based image retrieval features detector algorithm called Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF) algorithm over public cloud to extract the features and the Honey Encryption algorithm. The purpose of using the encrypted images database is to provide an accurate searching through encrypted documents without needing decryption. Progress in this area helps protect the privacy of sensitive data stored on the cloud. The experimental results (conducted on a well-known image-set) show that the performance of the proposed methodology achieved a noticeable enhancement level in terms of precision, recall, F-Measure, and execution time.

본 논문에서는 exclusive-OR 연산을 기반으로 암호화된 그레이 영상에 위상 랩핑(phase-wrapping)과 다중 위상 분할(multi-phase separation)방법을 적용하여 광학적 복호화가 용이하도록 한 광 암호화 시스템을 제안하였다. 암호화시 그레이 영상을 이진 영상들의 합으로 분리한 후 각각의 이진영상을 이진 무작위 영상과 변형된 XOR(modified XOR) 연산을 수행하고, 연산된 이진 영상들과 이진 무작위 영상들을 따로 결합한 후 이를 위상 부호화하여 암호화 영상과 키 영상을 만든다. 복호화시 암호화 영상과 키 영상의 위상 정보를 광소자로 구현할 경우 제어 가능한 위상 범위의 현실적 한계로 인해 그레이 정보 복원에 제약이 따른다. 따라서 위상 랩핑(phase-wrapping) 방법으로 암호화 영상과 키 영상의 위상 범위를 줄이고, 다중 위상분할(multi-phase separation)로 이 영상들을 낮은 레벨의 위상영상들로 분할함으로써, 위상범위가 제한된 광소자로도 그레이영상의 복호화가 가능하도록 하였다. 복호화는 암호화 영상과 키 영상의 곱을 기준파와 간섭시켜 간단히 구현하며, 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 이용해 제안한 방법의 타당성과 복호화시 위상 범위의 제한에 따른 영향을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 컬러 영상의 LSB에 워터마크를 은닉하기 위하여 영상의 인접 픽셀들과 공간적 암호화 기법을 사용하여 보안성이 높은 컬러 영상 워터마킹 기법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 기법에 따라 컬러 영상의 LSB에 워터마크를 은닉하여 생성된 스테고 이미지의 화질은 원본 영상과 차이를 인지할 수 없을 정도로 매우 우수하고, 스테고 이미지로부터 원본 워터마크를 손실 없이 추출할 수 있다. 제안 기법을 사용하여 영상에 워터마크를 은닉하면 스테고 이미지에 은닉되어있는 워터마크는 다중으로 암호화되어있기 때문에 워터마크의 보안성이 매우 우수하게 유지된다. 제안된 워터마킹 기법은 높은 보안이 요구되는 군사, 지적 재산권 보호 등의 응용에 사용될 수 있다.

Mobile Crowd Computing is one of the most efficient and effective way to collect the Electronic health records and they are very intelligent in processing them. Mobile Crowd Computing can handle, analyze and process the huge volumes of Electronic Health Records (EHR) from the high-performance Cloud Environment. Electronic Health Records are very sensitive, so they need to be secured, authenticated and processed efficiently. However, security, privacy and authentication of Electronic health records(EHR) and Patient health records(PHR) in the Mobile Crowd Computing Environment have become a critical issue that restricts many healthcare services from using Crowd Computing services .Our proposed Efficient Multi-layer Encryption Framework(MLEF) applies a set of multiple security Algorithms to provide access control over integrity, confidentiality, privacy and authentication with cost efficient to the Electronic health records(HER)and Patient health records(PHR). Our system provides the efficient way to create an environment that is capable of capturing, storing, searching, sharing, analyzing and authenticating electronic healthcare records efficiently to provide right intervention to the right patient at the right time in the Mobile Crowd Computing Environment.

Security of information during transmission is a major issue in this modern era. All of the communicating bodies want confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of their secret information. Researchers have presented various schemes to cope with these Internet security issues. In this context, both steganography and cryptography can be used effectively. However, major limitation in the existing steganographic methods is the low-quality output stego images, which consequently results in the lack of security. To cope with these issues, we present an efficient method for RGB images based on gray level modification (GLM) and multi-level encryption (MLE). The secret key and secret data is encrypted using MLE algorithm before mapping it to the grey-levels of the cover image. Then, a transposition function is applied on cover image prior to data hiding. The usage of transpose, secret key, MLE, and GLM adds four different levels of security to the proposed algorithm, making it very difficult for a malicious user to extract the original secret information. The proposed method is evaluated both quantitatively and qualitatively. The experimental results, compared with several state-of-the-art algorithms, show that the proposed algorithm not only enhances the quality of stego images but also provides multiple levels of security, which can significantly misguide image steganalysis and makes the attack on this algorithm more challenging.

MSC(Multispectral Camera), which will be a unique payload on KOMPSAT-II, is designed to collect panchromatic and multi-spectral imagery with a ground sample distance of 1m and a swath width of 15km at 685km altitude in sun-synchronous orbit. The instrument is designed to have an orbit operation duty cycle of 20% over the mission life time of 3 years. MSC electronics consists of three main subsystems; PMU(Payload Management Unit), CEU(Camera Electronics Unit) and PDTS(Payload Data Transmission Subsystem). PMU performs all the interface between spacecraft and MSC, and manages all the other subsystems by sending commands to them and receiving telemetry from them with software protocol through RS-422 interface. CEU controls FPA(Focal Plane Assembly) which contains TDI(Timc Delay Integration) CCD(Charge Coupled Device) and its clock drivers. PMU provides a Master Clock to synchronize panchromatic and multispectral camera. PDTS performs compression, storage and encryption of image data and transmits them to the ground station through x-band.
