چکیده

Retention of secrecy is one of the significant features during communication activity. Steganography is one of the popular methods to achieve secret communication between sender and receiver by hiding message in any form of cover media such as an audio, video, text, images etc. Least significant bit encoding is the simplest encoding method used by many steganography programs to hide secret message in 24bit, 8bit colour images and grayscale images. Steganalysis is a method of detecting secret message hidden in a cover media using steganography. RS steganalysis is one of the most reliable steganalysis which performs statistical analysis of the pixels to successfully detect the hidden message in an image. However, existing steganography method protects the information against RS steganalysis in grey scale images. This paper presents a steganography method using genetic algorithm to protect against the RS attack in colour images. Stego image is divided into number of blocks. Subsequently, with the implementation of natural evolution on the stego image using genetic algorithm enables to achieve optimized security and image quality. Keywords— Steganography, Steganalysis, Genetic Algorithm, Image quality measure, RS analysis

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...

A Secure Steganography Method based on Genetic Algorithm

With the extensive application of steganography, it is challenged by steganalysis. The most notable steganalysis algorithm is the RS attack which detects the steg-message by the statistic analysis of pixel values. To ensure the security against the RS analysis, we presents a new steganography based on genetic algorithm in this paper. After embedding the secret message in LSB (least significant ...

Steganography Scheme Based on Reed-Muller Code with Improving Payload and Ability to Retrieval of Destroyed Data for Digital Images

In this paper, a new steganography scheme with high embedding payload and good visual quality is presented. Before embedding process, secret information is encoded as block using Reed-Muller error correction code. After data encoding and embedding into the low-order bits of host image, modulus function is used to increase visual quality of stego image. Since the proposed method is able to embed...
