With the wide application of video information, the protection of video information from illegal access has been widely investigated recently. An efficient selective encryption scheme for high efficiency video coding (HEVC) based on hyperchaotic Lorenz system is proposed. Firstly, the hyperchaotic Lorenz system is discretized and the generated chaotic state values are converted into chaotic pseudorandom sequences for encryption. The important syntax elements in HEVC are then selectively encrypted with the generated stream cipher. The experimental results show that the encrypted video is highly disturbed and the video information cannot be recognized. Through the analysis of objective index results, it is shown that the scheme is both efficient and security.

Context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coding (CABAC) is the only entropy coding method in HEVC. According to statistics, CABAC encoders account for more than 25% of the high efficiency video coding (HEVC) coding time. Therefore, the improved CABAC algorithm can effectively improve the coding speed of HEVC. On this basis, a selective encryption scheme based on the improved CABAC algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the improved CABAC algorithm is used to optimize the regular mode encoding, and then the cryptographic algorithm is used to selectively encrypt the syntax elements in bypass mode encoding. The experimental results show that the encoding time is reduced by nearly 10% when there is great interference to the video information. The scheme is both safe and effective.
