Abstract
Based on the two-dimensional (2D) tan-sin-cos-coupling (2D-TSCC), a new image protection method is designed, this method includes steganography and encryption. First, a 2D-TSCC system is designed. The 2D-TSCC has a large parameter space in a hyperchaotic state. The chaotic trajectory fills the entire window. The chaotic sequence generated by the 2D-TSCC has a good pseudorandomness, so it can be used in steganography and encryption. Then, the amount of information contained in each bit of the cover image is analyzed, and the three bits which carry the least amount of information are selected. The secret image is hidden in these three bits base on the 2D-TSCC. Finally, the carrier image is scrambled and diffused by the 2D-TSCC. The ciphertext is generated in this way. Send the ciphertext to the recipient through channel transmission, and the recipient obtains the secret image by decrypting twice.
