In this paper, we propose a selective encryption scheme with a chaotic encryption system for the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard in which Context Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding (CABAC) is the only entropy coder for transform coefficient coding. Our method focuses on the binstrings of truncated rice with a context “p” (TRp) code suffix and kth order Exp-Golomb (k = p + 1) code suffix before Binary Arithmetic Coding (BAC) for the remaining absolute level coding, which is coded by the bypass mode in the entropy coding stage. The probability of symbols does not change and CABAC decoding has no effect after encryption. Several different YUV sequences are used for experimental evaluation of the proposed algorithm. Compared to previous researches, our approach has good protection for video information, which keeps a constant bitrate and format compatibility, and meantime it has a negligible impact on encoding performance.
