INTRODUCTION
Steganography is the art of hiding the fact that communication is taking place, by
hiding information in other information. Many different carrier file formats can be
used, but digital images are the most popular because of their frequency on the
internet. For hiding secret information in images, there exists a large variety of
steganography techniques some are more complex than others and all of them
have respective strong and weak points. Different applications may require
absolute invisibility of the secret information, while others require a large secret
message to be hidden. This project report intends to give an overview of image
steganography, its uses and techniques. It also attempts to identify the
requirements of a good steganography algorithm and briefly reflects on which
steganographic techniques are more suitable for which applications.
What is Steganography?
This technique is chosen, because this system includes not only imperceptibility
but also un-delectability by any steganolysis tool.
Project Scope:
This project is developed for hiding information in any image file. The scope of the
project is implementation of steganography tools for hiding information includes
any type of information file and image files and the path where the user wants to
save Image and extruded file.
Methodology:
User needs to run the application. The user has two tab options – encrypt and
decrypt. If user select encrypt, application give the screen to select image file,
information file and option to save the image file. If user select decrypt,
application gives the screen to select only image file and ask path where user
want to save the secrete file.
This project has two methods – Encrypt and Decrypt. In encryption the secrete
information is hiding in with any type of image file. Decryption is getting the
secrete information from image file.
Software Requirements:
.NET Framework 3.5
Hardware Requirements:
Processor: Preferably 1.0 GHz or Greater.
Encryption Process
BMP FILE
This steganography application software provided for the purpose to how to use
any type of image formats to hiding any type of files inside their. The master work
of this application is in supporting any type of pictures without need to convert to
bitmap, and lower limitation on file size to hide, because of using maximum
memory space in pictures to hide the file.
Since ancient times, man has found a desire in the ability to communicate
covertly. The recent explosion of research in watermarking to protect intellectual
property is evidence that steganography is not just limited to military or
espionage applications. Steganography, like cryptography, will play an increasing
role in the future of secure communication in the “digital world”.
