In this work a novel cryptosystem for binary images is developed. It is based on the use of hybrid cellular automata as pseudorandom bit generators. Such automata have good statistical properties as pseudorandom bit generators for cryptographic purposes. Moreover, the proposed cryptosystem is secure against brute force attacks.
