Based on the theory that a color image can be decomposed into three primary components and each one can be seen as a gray image, we propose a color image encryption method with multiple-order discrete fractional cosine transform (MODFrCT), which is a kind of encryption with the secrecy of pixel value and pixel position simultaneously. The complex number mode that has a real part and an imaginary one is used in this encryption method to save the transmission channel. Human vision is more sensitive to the Y component than to other two components in YCbCr color space and this color format is used for encrypting the color image. Chaos is introduced to scramble the image phases both in spatial and transformation domains. The numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and efficiency of this scheme and the robustness of the method against occlusion attack is examined.
