Robust Encryption for Secure Image Transmission Over Wireless Channels

Overview The security of multimedia data transmitted over wireless networks is of increased interest. Encryption mechanisms securely transmit multimedia data over insecure networks. A major issue that has received very little attention so far is that the very same properties that give ciphers (encryption mechanisms) their cryptographic strength make them sensitive to channel errors as well. In addition, this would enhance the error propagation inherent in compressed data. Therefore provision of security for multimedia transmission over wireless channel results in throughput loss. Nevertheless this lost throughput is traded for increased security.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
