Reversible Steganographic Technique Based on IWT for Enhanced Security
نویسندگان
چکیده
Steganography is used to hide a secret message within a cover image, thereby yielding a stego image such that even the trace of the presence of secret information is wiped out. The purpose of steganography is to maintain secret communication between two users. Steganography has several technical challenges namely high hiding capacity and imperceptibility. Steganographic technique with Integer Wavelet transform (IWT) and reversible technique provides high hiding capacity, high security, low complexity and good visual quality. Reversible technique in the sense extraction of the original input image. Steganography technique is of different types such as image steganography where image file is used as cover file, audio steganography where audio file is used as cover file and video file where video is used as cover file. Image steganography is the best technique for hiding information with more security than the other techniques.

Steganographic system based on higher-order statistics
Universal blind steganalysis attempts to detect steganographic data without knowledge about the applied steganographic system. Farid proposed such a detection algorithm based on higher-order statistics for separating original images from stego images. His method shows an astonishing performance on current steganographic schemes. Starting from the statistical approach in Farid’s algorithm, we in...

This paper devotes itself to the study of secret message delivery using cover image and introduces a novel steganographic technique based on genetic algorithm to find a near-optimum structure for the pair-wise least-significant-bit (LSB) matching scheme. A survey of the related literatures shows that the LSB matching method developed by Mielikainen, employs a binary function to reduce the numbe...

A novel model-based steganographic technique for JPEG images is proposed where the model, derived from heuristic assumptions about the shape of the DCT frequency histograms, is dependent on a stegokey. The secret message is embedded in DCT domain through an accurate selection of the potentially modifiable coefficients, taking into account their visual and statistical relevancy. A novel block me...

متن کاملReversible Image Steganography Based on Wavelets and Wavelet-like-transform
So far we have focussed on evaluating the performance of algorithms of irreversible image steganography in the ECCs domain and Transform domain for the grayscale and color images. In this Chapter we shall cover the two type of reversible image steganographic algorithms using the Companding technique (also called Reversible Thresholding Method) based on SLTPerceptual and Robust. We shall also gi...
