Abstract

This paper introduces a novel chaotic stream encryption method developed for securing audio files. Chaotic systems offer significant advantages in encryption processes due to their sensitivity to initial conditions and nonlinear dynamic structures. Audio files encrypted using the proposed method were analyzed using PSNR, entropy, and National Institute of Standards and Technology randomness tests. Additionally, the security of the encrypted audio data was evaluated through spectrogram analysis. The spectrogram analysis and National Institute of Standards and Technology randomness tests demonstrated the algorithm's strong potential resistance to post-quantum security threats.

KAOTİK SES ŞİFRELEME ARAŞTIRILMASI VE UYGULAMASI

Abstract

Bu makale, ses dosyalarını güvence altına almak için geliştirilmiş yeni bir kaotik akış şifreleme yöntemini tanıtmaktadır. Kaotik sistemler, başlangıç koşullarına duyarlılıkları ve doğrusal olmayan dinamik yapıları sayesinde şifreleme süreçlerinde önemli avantajlar sunar. Önerilen yöntemle şifrelenen ses dosyaları, tepe sinyal-gürültü oranı, entropi ve National Institute of Standards and Technology rastgelelik testleri kullanılarak. Algoritmanın kuantum sonrası güvenlik tehditlerine karşı güçlü bir direnç potansiyeline sahip olduğunu göstermiştir.
