Classical or traditional steganography aims at hiding a secret in cover media such as text, image, audio, video or even in network protocols. Recent research has improved this approach called distributed steganography by fragmenting the secret message and embedding each secret piece into a distinct cover media. The major interest of this approach is to make the secret message detection extremely difficult. However, these file modifications leave fingerprints which can reveal a secret channel to an attacker. Our contribution is a new steganography paradigm transparent to any attacker and resistant to the detection and the secret extraction. Two properties contribute to achieve these goals: the files do not undergo any modification while the distribution of the secret in the multi-cloud storage environment allows us to hide the existence of the covert channel between the communicating parties. Information’s are usually hidden inside the cover media. In this work, the covert media is a pointer to information. Therefore the file carries the information without being modified and the only way to access it is to have the key. Experiments show interesting comparison results with remarkable security contributions. The work can be seen as a new open direction for further research in the field.

“…Steganography is the art of writing secret data so that no one except the recipient is aware of the existence of the secret message [3]. Popular steganography techniques hide the secret in digital content such as text, image, video and audio files [4][5][6][7]. While other techniques insert the secret in the network protocols [8].…”

In multi-cloud computing, securing sensitive data remains a paramount challenge. This paper presents a novel steganographic methodology, Product Cipher-Based Distributed Steganography (PCDS), designed to securely hide data within a multi-cloud environment. This approach, addressing the intricacies of decentralized data concealment, utilizes unaltered cover media as benchmarks for fragmenting and disguising data. The PCDS scheme, by distributing hidden data dynamically across multiple cloud platforms, successfully evades detection through the absence of file modifications or the use of special characters. An in-depth security analysis of this method demonstrates its resilience against unauthorized access; even with complete access to all cloud accounts involved, the extraction of the concealed message remains computationally unfeasible. The utilization of an undisclosed key, alongside a base encoding value and the inherent computational complexity of the scheme, fortifies its defense against brute-force attacks, significantly elevating its security profile compared to existing methods. This paper contributes substantially to the field of cloud security and steganography by offering an undetectable and innovative approach for data hiding. It effectively counters prevailing vulnerabilities in multi-cloud storage and sets a new precedent for advanced secure data concealment strategies. Contrasting with conventional methods susceptible to brute-force attacks requiring substantially fewer computations, the PCDS framework ensures a higher level of security, providing robust protection for confidential data in cloud environments.

The paper presents a highly effective steganography scheme designed to protect hidden data in the cloud. The proposed scheme addresses the challenges of concealing data in a decentralized manner while minimizing traces left behind by changing cover media. Two significant technical contributions are introduced: 1) The use of unchanged cover media as a reference for fragmented data, and 2) Leveraging multi-cloud storage to securely store the hidden message. Recent research highlights the vulnerability of retrieving secret data from multi-cloud storage, underscoring the need for a robust solution. To overcome this, a product cipher-based distributed steganography scheme is proposed, ensuring dynamic data hiding across multiple cloud platforms in a distributed manner. Unlike related steganographic work, the scheme does not rely on file modifications or the use of special characters for concealment, making it an undetectable secret distribution system. By avoiding suspicious file content, the scheme does not draw attention from potential adversaries during an inspection. The security analysis of the proposed mechanism confirms its resilience against attacks, as even with full access to all cloud accounts, an attacker cannot compute the hidden message. The scheme's security is guaranteed by the unknown key, the base encoding value, and the computational complexity required for the opponent to determine the appropriate sequence of secret distribution and file numbering. In contrast to the current approach, which is susceptible to brute-force attacks with computations substantially smaller than B!*K!*n!, the PCDS scheme provides significantly stronger security guarantees.
