A multi-level approach with visual information for encrypted H.265/HEVC videos
High-efficiency video coding (HEVC) encryption has been proposed to encrypt syntax elements for the purpose of video encryption. To achieve high video security, to the best of our knowledge, almost all of the existing HEVC encryption algorithms mainly encrypt the whole video, such that the user without permissions cannot obtain any viewable information. However, these encryption algorithms cannot meet the needs of customers who need part of the information but not the full information in the video. In many cases, such as professional paid videos or video meetings, users would like to observe some visible information in the encrypted video of the original video to satisfy their requirements in daily life. Aiming at this demand, this paper proposes a multi-level encryption scheme that is composed of lightweight encryption, medium encryption and heavyweight encryption, where each encryption level can obtain a different amount of visual information. It is found that both encrypting the luma intraprediction model (IPM) and scrambling the syntax element of the DCT coefficient sign can achieve the performance of a distorted video in which there is still residual visual information, while encrypting both of them can implement the intensity of encryption and one cannot gain any visual information. The experimental results meet our expectations appropriately, indicating that there is a different amount of visual information in each encryption level. Meanwhile, users can flexibly choose the encryption level according to their various requirements.
