Visual cryptography scheme (VCS), is a cryptography technique where visual information is encrypted in such a way that decryption can be fulfilled with human visual system by direct stacking of the encrypted shares. Rotation visual cryptography is advanced technique of VCS where direct stacking of shares will not uphold the original image. In the existing literature, encryption techniques of VCS take longer time that can be substantially reduced by using CUDA. The proposed method uses CUDA for computationally intensive independent tasks performed on pixels during the rotation VCS. Parallel implementation of VCS will be faster and can be adopted in many real time applications that requires image security. Results show that the proposed method is 40-50 times faster than the existing encryption techniques.
