Privacy

Image Encryption

More and more users prefer to share their photos through image-sharing platforms of social networks than using e-mail or personal webpages. Since the provider of the image-sharing platform can clearly know the contents of any published images, the users have to trust the provider to respect their privacy or has to encrypt their images. In the context of the PhD of Kun He, we have proposed an IND-CPA image encryption algorithm that preserve the image format after encryption, and we have shown that our encryption algorithm can be used on several widely used image-sharing platforms such as Flickr, Pinterest, Google+ and Twitter. Kun He has completed her PhD thesis in September 2017 [5].
