Image Encryption

and Decryption
Securing Digital Images
OBJECTIVE

 With the growing reliance on digital images in various sectors—such as


healthcare, security, and social media—the need for effective encryption methods.

 The primary objective is to protect image data by scrambling the pixel values
during encryption and restoring the original image during decryption using the
same key.

 This project is a Java-based image encryption and decryption tool that


allows users to secure image files using a simple encryption method.
PROBLEM STATEMENT

 In the digital age, images are frequently shared across networks, making
them vulnerable to unauthorized access and data breaches.

 Traditional encryption methods may not be well-suited for image data.

 Image Security: Users need a simple way to protect images from


unauthorized access.

 File Integrity: Ensure that the original image can be restored after
encryption.
SOLUTION STRATEGY

 The core of the program applies a bitwise XOR operation on the image file’s
bytes, effectively scrambling or descrambling the data with a user-provided key.

 Key components :
• GUI Interface: Built with Swing, including buttons and text fields.
• File Handling: Selects, reads, modifies, and writes image files.
• XOR Encryption: Encrypts/decrypts the image data using bitwise XOR.
FEATURES
Encryption/Decryption Logic:
• The image file's bytes are read and stored in a byte array.
• Using the provided key, each byte is XOR’d with the key, altering the data to encrypt or
decrypt the image.
• XOR operation works symmetrically, meaning that applying the same key again decrypts the
image.

• Cross-platform Support: The Java-based solution runs on multiple operating systems


(Windows, macOS, Linux).
• Simple and Fast Processing: Ensures quick encryption and decryption without significant
delays.
APPLICATION AND SCOPE
1.Image Encryption/Decryption: Securely encrypt and decrypt image files
using a user-provided key.

2.Easy File Management: Modify and save encrypted images directly without
duplicating files.

3.Support for Multiple File Types: Extend the application to encrypt and
decrypt various file formats like PDFs, videos, and documents, not just images.

4. File Backup and Recovery: Include automatic file backup before encryption
in case of errors or accidental key loss, allowing users to restore the original file.
CONCLUSION

 User-friendly interface allows easy image selection and key input for non-technical
users.

 Provided quick encryption and decryption for efficient file handling.

 Achieved data security by protecting images with a numeric key.
