Abstract
In this work we present and analyze a conceptually novel encryption method for digital videos. This type of encryption has several advantages over currently available video encryption algorithms. We analyze both security and performance aspects of our method, and show that the method is efficient and secure from a cryptographic point of view. Even though the approach is currently feasible only for a selected class of video sequences and video codecs, the method is promising and future investigations might reveal its broader applicability.
