Abstract

Information security is very important to authorize users for Internet-based system. Steganography is an approach to make communication secure in high-density space and maintained among respective users for hidden communication of secret information. Alternatively, unauthorized user cannot realize the existence of authorized communication. In this paper, a data hiding scheme is proposed using the parity checker in frequency domain. In time of inserting the secret message, the protection of steganographic communication is increased by parity checker from statistical attacks due to indirect occurrence of information in stego-image. In addition, this procedure develops the authentication between LSB matrix of DCT values of cover image and secret key. This scheme maintains all the conditions of information security with high concreteness during wireless communication among authenticated users. Efficiency of the scheme is analyzed from statistical attacks with the parameters such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio, Mean Squared Error, Embedding capacity, and protection.
