An Efficient Essential Secret Image Sharing Scheme Using Derivative Polynomial

As a popular technology in information security, secret image sharing is a method to guarantee the secret image’s security. Usually, the dealer would decompose the secret image into a series of shadows and then assign them to a number of participants, and only a quorum of participants could recover the secret image. Generally, it is assumed that every participant is equal. Actually, due to their position in many practical applications, some participants are given special privileges. Therefore, it is desirable to give an approach to generate shadows with different priorities shadows. In this paper, an efficient essential secret image sharing scheme using a derivative polynomial is proposed. Compared with existing related works, our proposed scheme can not only create the same-sized shadows with smaller size but also removes the concatenation operation in the sharing phase. Theoretical analysis and simulations confirm the security and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
