Abstract

Steganographic techniques are used to embed data into a cover file using different algorithms. In this paper audio steganography countermeasure is discussed which uses a technique called double stegging or steganographic jamming where variations of LSB embedding algorithms are used for audio steganography prevention which can be used in real time under acceptable information loss. We then proceed to show that this method renders hidden embedded data unrecoverable. The resulting audio quality after Steganographic Jamming is evaluated. Mean Opinion Score and Signal to Noise Ratio are used to calculate the quality of output audio file which shows the effectiveness of the technique described.
