A novel method of image steganography in DWT domain

In this paper, we present a novel steganographic method for embedding of secret data in still grayscale image. In order to provide large capacity of the secret data while maintaining good visual quality of stego-image, the embedding process is performed in transform domain of Discrete Wavelet transform (DWT) by modifying of transform coefficients in an appropriate manner. In addition, the proposed method do not require original image for successful extraction of the secret information. The experimental results show that the proposed method provides good capacity and excellent image quality.
