Researchers at FIU’s College of Engineering and Computing have developed an encryption algorithm to defend videos from attackers with access to the world’s most powerful computers.
The encryption method protects sensitive videos from quantum computers — a rare but extremely powerful form of computer. FIU’s innovation stands to enhance cybersecurity for a wide range of videos, including those containing intellectual property, security surveillance footage and financial information.
The research, published in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, was led by S. S. Iyengar, Distinguished University Professor at the Knight Foundation School of Computing and Information Sciences; Yashas Hariprasad, a Ph.D. candidate on the FIU team at the time of the research; and Naveen Kumar Chaudhary of India’s National Forensic Sciences University.
