Photo encryption tool
Photos are our prized private possessions that we sometime want and sometimes don’t want
to share them with anyone.
Proposed app is a photo encryption tool that helps to maintain the privacy of personal photos
A secret image is split into multiple random images and with minimum computation the
original secret image can be retrieved back.
• The scheme is suitable for authentication based application or where trust cannot be
reposed in any one participant for decision making and a collective acceptance is
required to proceed.
• Ex: A typical scenario for this could be thought of as a secret code which has to be fed
in to commence a nuclear strike; the said code could be converted into an image and
split into random shares, held with the collective decision making body. To retrieve
the secret code random share of all the participants would be required
• An app that acts as a private vault to keep and share images encrypted using high security
algorithms .
• image encryption technique is used
• confidential graphical information, like coordinate cards, sensitive pics will be kept highly
secured using & stored in the cloud.
• It provides 2-step security,
– accessing normal images requires user to login
– accessing encrypted image requires authentication in cloud
Advantages
• No need of using keys, so key management is not an issue.
• It is robust to withstand brute force attack.
• Image quality is not reduced.
• No pixel expansion.
• Storage space consumed is exactly same as original image (no additional space).
