“…There are various data hiding schemes designed to protect data effectively in different application circumstances that have demonstrated exceptional results. Data hiding has branched out into reversible data hiding (RDH) [3][4][5][6][7] and non-reversible data hiding depending on whether the image content can be recovered or not. According to the hiding carriers, the hiding schemes can be cataloged into four different domains: spatial, frequency, compression, and encryption.…”

Information has been uploaded and downloaded through the Internet, day in and day out, ever since we immersed ourselves in the Internet. Data security has become an area demanding high attention, and one of the most efficient techniques for protecting data is data hiding. In recent studies, it has been shown that the indices of a codebook can be reordered to hide secret bits. The hiding capacity of the codeword index reordering scheme increases when the size of the codebook increases. Since the codewords in the codebook are not modified, the visual performance of compressed images is retained. We propose a novel scheme making use of the fundamental principle of the codeword index reordering technique to hide secret data in encrypted images. By observing our experimental results, we can see that the obtained embedding capacity of 197,888 is larger than other state-of-the-art schemes. Secret data can be extracted when a receiver owns a data hiding key, and the image can be recovered when a receiver owns an encryption key.

“…To confirm and defend the performance of the OpenPuff tool, this study additionally analyses its performance on a few hitherto unknown parameters. In order to address some of the problems with steganography approaches, the Integer Wavelet Transform methodology and JPEG (Joint Photograph Expert Group) compression are suggested in Pilania et al (2022) . Due to their inherent qualities, video cover images and JPEG compression increase hiding capacity.…”

Steganography is a technique in which a person hides information in digital media. The message sent by this technique is so secret that other people cannot even imagine the information’s existence. This article entails developing a mechanism for communicating one-on-one with individuals by concealing information from the rest of the group. Based on their availability, digital images are the most suited components for use as transmitters when compared to other objects available on the internet. The proposed technique encrypts a message within an image. There are several steganographic techniques for hiding hidden information in photographs, some of which are more difficult than others, and each has its strengths and weaknesses. The encryption mechanism employed may have different requirements depending on the application. For example, certain applications may require complete invisibility of the key information, while others may require the concealment of a larger secret message. In this research, we proposed a technique that converts plain text to ciphertext and encodes it in a picture using up to the four least significant bit (LSB) based on a hash function. The LSBs of the image pixel values are used to substitute pieces of text. Human eyes cannot predict the variation between the initial Image and the resulting image since only the LSBs are modified. The proposed technique is compared with state-of-the-art techniques. The results reveal that the proposed technique outperforms the existing techniques concerning security and efficiency with adequate MSE and PSNR.
