A new image encryption technique combining Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem with Hill Cipher
Open accessAbstract
Image encryption is rapidly increased recently by the increasing use of the internet and communication media. Sharing important images over unsecured channels is liable for attacking and stealing. Encryption techniques are the suitable methods to protect images from attacks. Hill cipher algorithm is one of the symmetric techniques, it has a simple structure and fast computations, but weak security because sender and receiver need to use and share the same private key within a non-secure channels. A new image encryption technique that combines Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem with Hill Cipher (ECCHC) has been proposed in this paper to convert Hill cipher from symmetric technique to asymmetric one and increase its security and efficiency and resist the hackers. Self-invertible key matrix is used to generate encryption and decryption secret key. So, no need to find the inverse key matrix in the decryption process. A secret key matrix with dimensions 4 × 4 will be used as an example in this study. Entropy, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), and Unified Average Changing Intensity (UACI) will be used to assess the grayscale image encryption efficiency and compare the encrypted image with the original image to evaluate the performance of the proposed encryption technique.

Classical hybrid cryptosystems combine a symmetric image cipher with asymmetric key transport such as ElGamal, ECC, Hill cipher variants or RSA, all of which are broken in polynomial time by Shor's algorithm.
“Second, classical hybrid cryptosystems [32][33][34][35][36][37][38] consist of a combination of a symmetric image cypher and asymmetric key transport, which is either ElGamal, ECC, Hill cypher variants or RSA; all of which are the weakest links broken in polynomial time by Shor's algorithm.”
From A hybrid encryption algorithm based on AES and Kyber for secure image protection in the post-quantum era (2026) · cites this paper as [36]
The Introduction and Conclusions describe an image-encryption scheme combining the symmetric Hill cipher with ECC-based key generation. They say the parties produce a secret key without transmitting it, rather than describing asymmetric key transport. The paper does not address Shor’s algorithm or claim polynomial-time attacks on the listed cryptosystems. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
