Summary:
During the past decade a large number of chaos-based encryption systems has been suggested and investigated. Several of these systems are not suitable for cryptographic applications as they are cryptographically weak. In this paper some general design rules for chaosbased encryption systems are derived based on strenghts and weaknesses of already suggested systems. To demonstrate the importance of each design rule an example system which does not obey this rule is given and its weakness is shown.
