Essentials of Image Steganalysis Measures

چکیده
We present a technique for steganalysis of images that have been subjected to Least Significant Bit (LSB) type steganographic algorithms. The seventh and eight bit planes in an image are used for the computation of several binary similarity measures and we analyze the security of Least Significant Bit (LSB) embedding for hiding messages in high-color-depth digital images. The basic idea is that, the correlation between the bit planes as well the binary texture characteristics within the bit planes will differ between a stego-image and a cover-image. These telltale marks can be used to construct a steganalyzer, that is, a multivariate regression scheme to detect the presence of a steganographic message in an image.

Steganalysis of embedding in difference of image pixel pairs by neural network
In this paper a steganalysis method is proposed for pixel value differencing method. This steganographic method, which has been immune against conventional attacks, performs the embedding in the difference of the values of pixel pairs. Therefore, the histogram of the differences of an embedded image is di_erent as compared with a cover image. A number of characteristics are identified in the di...
متن کاملAn extended feature set for blind image steganalysis in contourlet domain
The aim of image steganalysis is to detect the presence of hidden messages in stego images. We propose a blind image steganalysis method in Contourlet domain and then show that the embedding process changes statistics of Contourlet coefficients. The suspicious image is transformed into Contourlet space, and then the statistics of Contourlet subbands coefficients are extracted as features. We us...
متن کاملSteganalysis Method for LSB Replacement Based on Local Gradient of Image Histogram
In this paper we present a new accurate steganalysis method for the LSBreplacement steganography. The suggested method is based on the changes that occur in thehistogram of an image after the embedding of data. Every pair of neighboring bins of ahistogram are either inter-related or unrelated depending on whether embedding of a bit ofdata in the image could affect both bins or not. We show that...
متن کاملImage Steganalysis Based on Co-Occurrences of Integer Wavelet Coefficients
We present a steganalysis scheme for LSB matching steganography based on feature vectors extracted from integer wavelet transform (IWT). In integer wavelet decomposition of an image, the coefficients will be integer, so we can calculate co-occurrence matrix of them without rounding the coefficients. Before calculation of co-occurrence matrices, we clip some of the most significant bitplanes of ...
متن کاملEigenvalues-based LSB steganalysis
So far, various components of image characteristics have been used for steganalysis, including the histogram characteristic function, adjacent colors distribution, and sample pair analysis. However, some certain steganography methods have been proposed that can thwart some analysis approaches through managing the embedding patterns. In this regard, the present paper is intended to introduce a n...
