Chaotic system requires parameters to generate random sequences. Recent studies show that the improper selection of parameter values make secret keys generated from chaotic system vulnerable. Meta-heuristic techniques have been introduced in the area of image encryption to improve the selection of chaotic system parameters. But, these techniques suffer from poor computational speed. To overcome this issue, in this paper, a parallel Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II)-based intertwining logistic map is proposed to encrypt the images. To implement NSGA-II in parallel fashion, master–slave environment is designed. Initially, the execution time analysis of NSGA-II is done to determine the computationally expensive operations. Thereafter, NSGA-II operators are divided into master and slave jobs. The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is used for intercommunication between master and slave nodes. The simulation results show that the parallel proposed technique provides a significant improvement in computational speed as compared to the existing techniques.
