contents In this paper, an anti-eavesdropping estimation problem is investigated. A linear encryption scheme is utilized, which first linearly transforms innovation via an encryption matrix and then encrypts some components of the transformed innovation. To reduce the computation and energy resources consumed by the linear encryption scheme, both stochastic and deterministic intermittent strategies which perform the linear encryption scheme only at partial moments are developed. When the system is stable, it is shown that the mean squared error (MSE) of the eavesdropper converges under any stochastic or deterministic intermittent strategy. Also, an analytical encryption matrix that maximizes the steady-state of the MSE is designed. When the system is unstable, the eavesdropper's MSE can be unbounded with arbitrary positive encryption probabilities and decision functions if encryption matrices are chosen appropriately. Then, the relationship between the aforementioned encryption parameters and the eavesdropper's MSE is analyzed. Moreover, a single intermittent strategy which only encrypts one message is discussed. This strategy can be unavailable for stable systems, but can make the eavesdropper's MSE unbounded in unstable systems for the encrypted message satisfies a linear matrix inequality (LMI) condition. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is verified in the simulation.
