A Novel Audio Encryption Algorithm with Permutation-Substitution Architecture

In this paper, a new cryptographic method is proposed, designed for audio files’ security. The encryption algorithm is based on classic symmetric models using pseudo-random number generator composed with chaotic circle map and modified rotation equations. The scheme of a new pseudo-random generator is presented and used as basis for chaotic bit-level permutations and substitutions applied to audio files structure for successful encryption. The audio encryption and decryption algorithms are described and explained. Proving the high level of security we provide extensive cryptographic analysis including key sensitivity analysis, key-space analysis, waveform and spectrogram analysis, correlation analysis, number of sample change rate analysis, level of noise analysis and speed performance test.
