Analysis of Pixel Merging for Multi Image Integration for Security Enhancement

This paper focus on image security based on compressing the image with encryption and pixel integration. This process involves applying Joint Photographic Experts Group compression for RGB layers, encrypting the images with Elliptic Curve Encryption Algorithm and block based interleaving followed by pixel based integration technique. With the key specifically generated for the image, the original image is decrypted from multiple images. This method is useful when access permissions needs to be restricted to certain viewers. The proposed method provides a high-level security in the fields of aerospace, national security, military, financial and economic, and so on. Performance is evaluated by calculating the correlation coefficient and entropy values.
