Image encryption for secure Internet multimedia applications

We present a novel scheme for secure Internet image transmission. The feature of the proposed scheme is joint application between image compression and image encryption. For source coding, we implement the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and for channel coding, we utilize the block cipher Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm. Simulation results show that our proposed method significantly enhances security for image transmission over Internet as well as improves the transmission rate.
