초록
In this paper, we presented a ciphering method whose target data is any kind of digital bit-stream. It uses a chaotic system as the main encrypting tool, MISR (Multi-Input Signature Register), and shift-and-rotation function, all of which are exclusive-ORed with the plaintext. Also, it incorporates a cipher text feedback mode such that part of the previously ciphered data is fed back to encrypt the current data. The encryption block size and the amount of feedback data are different at each ciphering operation. Experimental results with the image/video date showed that this method has enough speed and encryption effect with negligible latency time. Thus, we are expecting it to have various application areas that need high speed stream ciphering with high security level.
