| dc.description.abstract | In today's digital era, Digital image security is an ongoing concern as the digital landscape expands.
The widespread sharing of images online makes them vulnerable to privacy breaches and
unauthorized access. Traditional image formats are often not protected adequately, leaving them
vulnerable to cyber threats and data breaches. Traditional image storage and transmission methods
are vulnerable to unauthorized access and cyberattacks, which makes it important to develop
robust image encryption solutions. This project introduces an intuitive software application that
empowers users to encrypt and decrypt images effortlessly. It offers a method to transform images
into ciphertext, rendering them unreadable to unauthorized individuals. The decryption process,
using the corresponding technique, allows the restoration of the original image, ensuring data
privacy and integrity. Through the application of advanced cryptographic techniques, to realize
this solution, we used symmetric-key cryptography technique in programming language Java to
implement the project. The project utilizes a simple cryptographic technique, to ensure the security
of the encryption process. Our project has yielded promising results, with successful encryption
and decryption of various digital images. the encryption process provides robust protection against
unauthorized access, and the decryption process reliably restores images to their original form.
Furthermore, our methods demonstrate efficiency in terms of execution time and image quality
preservation. The Image Encryption and Decryption project addresses a critical need for data
security in the digital age, particularly in the context of visual data. As an area of constant
evolution, the future scope of this project includes enhancements to existing methods, exploration
of new encryption techniques, and adaptation for emerging technologies. | en_US |
