Abstract: This paper proposes a user-biometric-based image encryption using chaotic dynamical systems, SHA-256 hash function, and zigzag transformation. Three chaotic systems, namely, the Henon map, logistic map, and Lorenz system, are used to apply the chaotic properties to the encryption system. The hash value of the user biometric image is used to generate the initial value of the Henon map. The initial values for the logistic map and Lorenz system are generated from the hash value of the plain image. SHA-256 hash algorithm generates the hash values of the biometric and plain images. The plain image is scrambled using the two-dimensional chaotic values generated by the Henon map first. Next, the first scrambled image's pixels are XORed with the one-dimensional chaotic values generated from the logistic map and produce the second scrambled image. Finally, take the second scrambled image's pixels, and XOR them with the three-dimensional chaotic values generated from the Lorenz system and create the final encrypted image. The robustness and flexibility of the encryption system are analyzed using various security and performance analyses. The experiment results are compared with the existing algorithms to prove the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
