Comparison of Genetic Algorithm of Image Encryption with New Cipher Algorithm

Network security is an important issue, and encryption is one of the way to ensure security in the digital world. Image security becomes important because of their frequency of use over internet. There exist many different image encryption techniques each has their own advantage and disadvantage. In this proposed method we first encrypt the image using Genetic algorithm and then by using our new cipher algorithm. We have also calculated the PSNR and MSE of reconstructed image of both methods and it is found that our new cipher has higher PSNR and less MSE compared to Genetic algorithm. Thus the image quality of this new cipher is good. Keywords— Encryption, PSNR, Cryptography, Crossover, Mutation, MSE
