“…The file that was produced as a consequence is known as the stego medium (and it will, of course, be of the same type as the cover medium file). Steganography may be implemented in one of these four ways: [6] 1. Using text.…”

There are many and many ways that play an important role in terms of information security, including the most common method known as cryptography, which is changing/hiding the basic data according to a certain method to make it unreadable. Steganography is another art that aims to completely hide data to communicate between two parties unobtrusively to a third party, and this is known as steganography. Only the relevant persons are aware of this contact. The practice of steganography includes concealing a message inside a suitable carrier, such as a picture or an audio file, for example. Steganography is also known as cryptography. The carrier may then be delivered to the intended recipient with no one except the intended recipient being aware that it conceals a message. For instance, civil rights organizations in repressive countries may utilize this strategy to get their message out to the globe without raising suspicion at home. This is due to the fact that it is possible to use this strategy in private. In this piece, we've attempted to explain the many steps involved in using a "multimedia" file to create steganography (text, static image, audio, and video). Stainless is an emerging area of data science that tries to detect steganographic masks and, if possible, retrieve hidden communications. Stainless is an emerging industry. It's extremely similar to cryptanalysis, which is used in the field of cryptography. The technique has been around for quite some time, but it has only recently gained widespread notice because of its application to the secure transmission of digital information. The primary objective is to conceal the existence of the communication, as well as to prevent it from being read.

“…Hardware-based approaches are having advantageous over software-based approaches in terms of constraints like less area, less power consumption, and less execution time. The hardware-based steganography approaches meet most of the real-time requirements and used in many applications [8]. The hardware-based approaches provide portability, capable of connecting with other devices, and with low processing speed.…”

The data transmission with information hiding is a challenging task in today world. To protect the secret data or image from attackers, the steganography techniques are essential. The steganography is a process of hiding the information from one channel to another in data communication. In this research work, Design of an Efficient Steganography Model using Lifting Based DWT and Modified-LSB Method on FPGA is proposed. The stegano module includes DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transformation) with lifting scheme for the cover image and encryption with Bit mapping for a secret image, an embedded module using Modified Least Significant Bit (MLSB) Method, and Inverse DWT to generate the stegano image. The recovery module includes DWT, decoding module with pixel extraction and bit retrievals, and decryption to generate the recovered secret image. The steganography model is designed using Verilog-HDL on Xilinx platform and implemented with Artix-7 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The hardware resource constraints like Area, time, and power utilization of the proposed model results are tabulated. The performance analysis of the work is evaluated using Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Mean Square Error (MSE) Ratio for a different cover and secret images with better quality. The proposed steganography model operates at high speed, which improves communication performance.

“…Implementation of embedding function (f Em ) and extraction function (f Ex ) may be in either software or hardware platform. Hardware implementation has always offered advantages over software realization [1] in terms of low execution time, low power consumption, high reliability, and realtime performance. Implemented hardware can also be made compatible with existing consumer electronics communicating devices.…”

Due to demand of information transfer through higher speed wireless communication network, it is time to think about security of important information to be transferred. Further, as these communication networks are part of open channel, to preserve the security of any Critical Information (CI) is really a challenging task in any real-time application. Data hiding techniques give more security and robustness of important CI against encryption or cryptographic software solutions. However, hardwired approach exhibits better solution not only in terms of reduction of complexity but also in terms of adaptive real-time output. This paper demonstrates frequency, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) domain Steganographic data hiding hardware solution for secret communication called Crypto-Stego-Real-Time (CSRT) System. The challenge is to design a secure algorithm keeping reliability of minimum distortion of original cover signal while embedding considerable amount of CI. Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation shown in this paper is more secure, robust, and fast. Pipelining process while embedding enhances the speed of embedding, optimizes the memory utilization, and gives better Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and high robustness. Practically implemented hardware Steganographic solutions shown in this paper also give better performance than that of the current state-of-the-art hardware implementations.
