Image based steganography and cryptography

چکیده
In this paper we describe a method for integrating together cryptography and steganography through image processing. In particular, we present a system able to perform steganography and cryptography at the same time using images as cover objects for steganography and as keys for cryptography. We will show such system is an effective steganographic one (making a comparison with the well known F5 algorithm) and is also a theoretically unbreakable cryptographic one (demonstrating its equivalence to the Vernam Cipher).

Optimizing image steganography by combining the GA and ICA
In this study, a novel approach which uses combination of steganography and cryptography for hiding information into digital images as host media is proposed. In the process, secret data is first encrypted using the mono-alphabetic substitution cipher method and then the encrypted secret data is embedded inside an image using an algorithm which combines the random patterns based on Space Fillin...
متن کاملSecret Information Steganography Using LSB Insertion Methodwithout Bit Layout Section with Increasing Substitution Rate and High Reliability
In this paper, a faster method for embedding cryptographic information in the image ispresented by expressing the concept of latent prints (Steganography). Data is encrypted bytwo methods before embedding to increase reliability. Then they are embedded into the imageby a button, a method has been expressed to reduce potential noise impact on the wayinformation is encoded.
متن کاملA Novel Patch-Based Digital Signature
In this paper a new patch-based digital signature (DS) is proposed. The proposed approach similar to steganography methods hides the secure message in a host image. However, it uses a patch-based key to encode/decode the data like cryptography approaches. Both the host image and key patches are randomly initialized. The proposed approach consists of encoding and decoding algorithms. The encodin...
متن کاملA New Hybrid Method for Colored Image Steganography Based On DWT
Data transmission security has become an extremely important field of research. Steganography is an art of hiding information in image, audio and video files in a way that would meet the security requirements in the form of overt or covert. In this study, we propose a new hybrid steganography technique for color images that hide secret messages in the frequency domain of a cover image's blu...
