Practical Approaches for Image Encryption/Scrambling Using 3D Arnolds Cat Map

This paper is exploratory study of the 3D Arnolds Cat Map. The paper discusses the Arnold’s cat map and its 3D extension that is 3D Arnolds Cat Map in detail. This paper extends idea of encryption/scrambling to the encrypting/scrambling colour image using encryption/scrambling of R, G, and B components. Experimental implementation of two different 3D Arnolds Cat Maps proposed by different authors are provided along with their results. Paper also discusses inverse ACM transformation to recover the scrambled image.
