Secure Steganography for Digital Images
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
The degree of imperceptibility of hidden image in the ‘Digital Image Steganography’ is mostly defined in relation to the limitation of Human Visual System (HVS), its chances of detection using statistical methods and its capacity to hide maximum information inside its body. Whereas, a tradeoff does exist between data hiding capacity of the cover image and robustness of underlying information hiding scheme. This paper is an exertion to underline the technique to embed information inside the cover at Stego key dependent locations, which are hard to detect, to achieve optimal security. Hence, it is secure under worst case scenario where Wendy is in possession of the original image (cover) agreed upon by Alice and Bob for their secret communication. Reliability of our proposed solution can be appreciated by observing the differences between cover, preprocessed cover and Stego object. Proposed scheme is equally good for color as well as gray scaled images. Another interesting aspect of this research is that it implicitly presents fusion of cover and information to be hidden in it while taking care of passive attacks on it
