                         of the finite field cosine transform (FFCT) is examined. The 
                         approach consists in dividing the image into blocks and applying 
                         the FFCT, in a recursive manner, to each block. Simulations of the 
                         procedure show that the histogram of the transformed image 
                         exhibits a uniform shape and its pixels have low correlation with 
                         their neighbors. This result is achieved due to the modular 
                         arithmetic used in the application of the FFCT to the image 
                         blocks. The suitability of the proposed technique in the context 
                         of image encryption is discussed.",
