摘要

The advent of the Internet in these last years encouraged a considerable traffic of digital images. In the sanitary field, precisely in telemedicine branch, medical images play a very important role for therapeutic diagnoses. Thus, it is necessary to protect medical images data before transmission over the network to preserve their security and prevent unauthorized access. In this paper, a secure algorithm for biomedical images encryption scheme based on the combination of watermarking technique and chaotic function is proposed. In the proposed method, to achieve high security level performances, a non-blind hybrid watermarking technique with audio signal, Discrete Wavelet Transform is used;smoothness is also used as selected criteria;the iterations obtained by the chaotic sequences are essential and allow a good realization of the encryption process. One of the main advantages of chaos-based encryption schemes is the generation of a large number of key spaces to resist brute force attacks from the encryption algorithm. The experimental results presented in this paper attest to the invisibility and robustness of the proposed algorithm combining watermarking and chaos-based encryption.
