Abstract :
In this paper, an Image Encryption System by special kind of cellular automata (cellular automata with memory) and also an appropriate transition function for the cryptosystem have been proposed. Also a lossy idea is used to present a secure cryptosystem. The use of lossy method provides a secure method and it is shown that the result is resistant to cryptanalysis attacks, especially known plaintext and chosen plaintext. When the original image is compared with the decrypted image by human visual system, it is not recognizable which one is decrypted and which one is the original image.
