To ensure the safety of the transferred data, security methods must be put in place. Encrypting an image is a method of protecting sensitive data by converting it into an unrecognizable format. The procedure includes access control, privacy, validation, and copyright protection. Cryptography, steganography, and watermarking are three distinct methods to prevent unauthorized access to digital data. Of these three methods, cryptography has emerged as one of the most important ways to ensure complete safety. Therefore, a secure and efficient cipher algorithm is required for trustworthy communication.  In this work, we offer a practical Secured Asymmetric Image Cipher (SAIC) Algorithm for encrypting images with a secret key of arbitrary length. At first, the KG algorithm creates two unique keys. Both the encryption and decryption processes require a key.  The experimental results reveal that the encrypted image lacks the original image's independence (NPCR > 99.89%, UACI > 36.89%). The suggested approach has a high encryption rate, can be implemented easily, and is computationally secure. The reproduced data validates the safety and practicability of the proposed architecture. 2023 2023 30 40 10.54216/JCIM.120103 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/2/show/1815
