A Technique of Hiding Secrete Text in Wave File

Abstract

Steganography is the art of hiding secret data within other information (such as wave file) that it cannot be detected, but only by its intended recipient. Embedding secret text in wave file is a difficult process. There are varying techniques for embedding information in wave files. In this research a new simple technique of hiding secret information using wave files were produced, regardless the simplicity this technique it will be accurate and high confident.This paper features a new technique that suggests that the secrete text is encoded through the use position vector into wave file. The position vector (PV) is to be initialized randomly and to be kept confidential between the sender and the receiver. The security level of this technique will be high and it can be increased by encrypting the secrete text or/and encrypt the wave file including the text.

Data Steganography Using Embedded Private Key

“…Many methods were proposed for data steganography [19], [20], [21], most of them are based on least significant bit (LSB) method of data hiding, and here in this paper we will use LSB2 method because it has good features such as doubling the hiding capacity, providing low value for MSE and high value for PSNR [22], [23], [24].…”

Using Logical Operations to Secure LSB2 Data Steganography

“…Digital color images are recommended to be used to hide secret data for the following reasons:  Digital images are very popular and easily obtainable [1], [2], [3].  The digital color image is represented by a three-dimensional matrix [11], [12], which facilitates logical and mathematical processing [4], [5].  These digital images now have high resolution, which in turn provides a large volume that can be used to hide large blind data [6], [7].…”

Image Blocking to Hide Secret Message

“…And to implement the process of hiding messages, colored digital images can be used as a medium to hide messages for various reasons, the most important of which are [7]. [8], [9]:  Color images are a massive medium due to the high resolution of the color image [16], [17], 18].  Color image is widely available and can be obtained easily [19], [20].…”
