Hashing technique based on SHA-3 using chaotic maps1

New hashing technique based on SHA-3 (Secure Hash Algorithm-3) is introduced. Chaotic maps are used in this technique to enhance performance without losing security. Introduced algorithm was tested for resistance against collisions, statistical analysis of output sequences was performed, hashing performance was evaluated. The testing showed a low collision probability. The testing corresponds the standards of National Institute of Standards and Technology and showed that output sequences are close to random. Performance testing showed 60 % enhancement in comparison with plain SHA-3.
