Designing nonlinear component of block cipher over finite chain ring \(F_2\left[x\right]/\left\langle x^{10}\right\rangle\) and RGB image encryption
摘要
In today’s era, protecting information has become a paramount concern for both individuals and organizations. Ensuring the protection of sensitive data against unauthorized access is of utmost importance. When sharing data between different parties, it is essential to utilize secure communication channels. The only nonlinear element of a symmetric key encryption cipher that directly influences the security and efficiency of the encryption method is a substitution box (S-box). Therefore, producing S-boxes with outstanding performance and efficiency is desirable. Such structures are often constructed in algebra using Galois fields (GF). The local ring-based cryptosystem, which offers a significant security advantage against advanced cryptanalysis, is founded on the algebraic structure of local rings. In this article, we proposed a novel scheme that utilizes the local finite commutative chain ring
