Background:

Traditional optical encryption methods face challenges in security and efficiency.
The need for robust cryptographic systems resistant to sophisticated attacks is growing.
Image self-disordering algorithms offer potential for enhanced cryptographic properties.

Purpose of the Study:

To demonstrate a novel optical-cryptographic system leveraging a new image self-disordering algorithm (ISDA).
To enhance optical encryption security and efficiency against common and advanced attacks.
To validate the proposed system through experimental synthesis and color image encryption.

Main Methods:

Development of a novel image self-disordering algorithm (ISDA) for cryptographic key generation.
Implementation of a 2f-coherent optical processor with two random phase masks for encryption.
Iterative procedure using input data ordering sequences to generate diffusion and confusion keys.
Security analysis including resistance to chosen-plaintext attack (CPA) and known-plaintext attack (KPA).

Main Results:

The proposed system demonstrates resistance to chosen-plaintext and known-plaintext attacks due to input-dependent keys.
The ISDA destroys the linearity of the 2f processor, enhancing ciphertext security in phase and amplitude.
Experimental validation through keystream synthesis and color image encryption confirms system feasibility.
The novel approach offers superior security and efficiency compared to existing optical encryption systems.

Conclusions:

The developed optical-cryptographic system based on ISDA provides a highly secure and efficient method for image encryption.
The system's resistance to common attacks and enhanced ciphertext properties significantly improve optical encryption protection.
The successful experimental validation paves the way for practical applications in secure optical information processing.
