A New Approach for Data Hiding with LSB Steganography

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 338))

Abstract

Steganography is the art of hiding data into a media in such a way that the presence of data can’t be detected when the communication is taking place. This paper provides a review of recent achievements of LSB based spatial domain steganography that have an improved steganography’s ultimate objectives, which are undetectable, robustness and capacity of hidden data. These techniques can help researchers in understanding about image steganography and various techniques of hiding data in an image. Along with this, two new methods are proposed one for hiding secret message into cover image and the second is hiding a grey scale secret image into another grey scale image. These methods uses 4-states #table that generates pseudo random numbers which are used for hiding secret information. These methods provide higher security because secret information is hidden at different position of LSB of image depending on pseudo numbers generated by the #table.
