Encryption algorithm for efficient transmission of HEVC media

Abstract

Recently, H.265/MPEG-H or high efficiency video coding (HEVC) as it is well known, has been established as better compression standard due to reduction of about 50 % bit-rate for same video quality and less bandwidth consumption, compared to its predecessor H.264/MPEG-advanced video coding standard. Many algorithms have been proposed and developed for efficient and secure streaming of multimedia files. However, these methods do not meet all the requirements of effective and secure transmission over the internet. In this paper, we present a new encryption and transmission algorithm for efficient HEVC delivery. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm is more secure and effective compared to previous algorithms used for H.264 standard and shows better overall performance.
