N2 - Data security is becoming more and more crucial due to developments in communication and information technology, particularly when it comes to video transmission. This research provides a unique approach that combines 4D Logistic Mapping (4DLM) with MASK cryptography technology to improve video data security. The five steps of the suggested approach are as follows: gathering video, extracting frames, compressing data using the LZW technique, encrypting it using MASK, and embedding it using 4DLM. To protect the video frames, MASK encryption uses a single matrix and four arrays, advancing through matrix initialization, key scheduling, and substitution/diffusion. 4DLM is used after encryption to improve the system's overall security and effectiveness. This model's major goal is to keep performance high while safeguarding video data from unwanted access. Data confidentiality is significantly improved by the suggested strategy, as shown by simulations performed with the Python program. For the example video sequences, the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) was close to 99%, which indicates better performance than current methods. MASK and 4D Logistic Mapping together provide a powerful answer for today's data security issues by providing an effective and safe method of video data protection.
