ABSTRACT
The fast growth of the electronic era has led to all documentations,audio
and video being digitized. This has increased the requirement for ensuring
the safety and reliability of any document, audio and video to maintain
privacy, and to prevent piracy and mass reproduction.
Steganography is the art of invisible communication to keep secret
information inside other information.

Steganography algorithm can be used for image encryption

3
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The importance of data hiding techniques comes from the fact
the there is no reliability over the medium through which the
information is send, in other words the medium is not secured.

How can we send a message secretly to the destination?

Using steganography, information can be hidden in carriers such
as images, audio files, text files, videos and data transmissions.

4
OBJECTIVES
In a steganography system the hidden message carried by stego media
should not be sensible to human beings.

In our project the main objective is to analyse, enhance and to

develop a steganographic algorithm for image encryption.

EXISTING AND PROPOSED METHOD

Existing method :
1. Plain text steganography
2. Use of selected characters to cover text
3. Use of extra white space characters of cover text
Proposed method :
1. Still image steganography
2. LSB technique implementation using MATLAB

LITERATURE SURVEY
1. “Steganography on Thermal Images Using Generation Technique” by
Mr.S.Vijayananth and Dany Thomas, IEEE 2014

• In this paper, thermal image which contains only red, green, blue colours is been
hidden by processing with the key image there by generates the cover image thus
the technique used is known as the generation technique in Steganography.

2. “LSB Layer Independent Robust Steganography using Binary Addition” by

Mr.Biswajitha datta and MR. Samir kumar, CMS 2016.
• The technique discussed in this paper meets three challenges of steganography
efficiently. It meets imperceptibility issue by ensuring that the maximum
number of changes in intensity value is independent of number of LSB layer
chosen for binary addition 7
LITERATURE SURVEY
3. “An Introduction to Image Steganography Techniques” by
Shahrin bin Sahib and Mazdak Zamani, ACSAT 2012

• This paper deals with basics of steganography, different types of steganography

and different measurement criteria of steganography

NOVELTY

Early steganographic techniques used LSB algorithm for hiding message.

Whereas our system utilized LSB algorithm along with thermal image for
better security.

9
 LSB ALGORITHM
In this method, we can take the binary representation of the hidden_data
and overwrite the LSB of each byte within the cover_image. If we are using
24-bit color, the amount of change will be minimal and indiscernible to the
human eye. As an example, suppose that we have three adjacent pixels

10010101 00001101 11001001

10010110 00001111 11001010
10011111 00010000 11001011

10
 LSB ALGORITHM
Now suppose we want to "hide" the following 9 bits of data 101101101. If
we overlay these 9 bits over the LSB of the 9 bytes above, we get the
following
10010101 00001100 11001001
10010111 00001110 11001011
10011111 00010000 11001011
