Experts and researchers in the field of information security have placed a high value on the security of image data in the last few years. They have presented several image encryption techniques that are more secure. To increase the security level of image encryption algorithms, this article offers an efficient diffusion approach for image encryption methods based on one- dimensional Logistic, three-dimensional Lorenz, DNA encoding and computing, and SHA-256. The encryption test demonstrates that the method has great security and reliability. This article, also, examines the security of encryption methods, such as secret key space analysis, key sensitivity test, histogram analysis, information entropy process, correlation examination, and differential attack. When the image encryption method described in this article is compared to several previous image encryption techniques, the encryption algorithm has higher information entropy and a lower correlation coefficient.
