Abstract :
Steganography is the art of hiding the very presence of communication by embedding secret messages into innocuous looking cover images. The least significant bit (LSB) steganography that replaces the least significant bits of the host medium is a widely used technique with low computational complexity and high insertion capacity. Although it has good perceptual transparency, it is vulnerable to steganalysis which is based on histogram analysis. In all the existing schemes detection of a secret message in a cover image can be easily detected from the histogram analysis and statistical analysis. Therefore developing new LSB steganography algorithms against statistical and histogram analysis is the prime requirement.
