چکیده
Steganography is data hiding technique that is mostly used. It uses cover object of type text, images, and videos. The paper presents a new devised algorithm to hide text in any colored image of any size using Huffman encryption and 2D Wavelet Transform. We presented simulated results which prove that there is very negligible image quality degradation. We used PSNR metric for this purpose. The subject algorithm also proved secure as Huffman table is required to decode the information.

A New Hybrid Method for Colored Image Steganography Based On DWT
Data transmission security has become an extremely important field of research. Steganography is an art of hiding information in image, audio and video files in a way that would meet the security requirements in the form of overt or covert. In this study, we propose a new hybrid steganography technique for color images that hide secret messages in the frequency domain of a cover image's blu...
متن کاملSteganography Scheme Based on Reed-Muller Code with Improving Payload and Ability to Retrieval of Destroyed Data for Digital Images
In this paper, a new steganography scheme with high embedding payload and good visual quality is presented. Before embedding process, secret information is encoded as block using Reed-Muller error correction code. After data encoding and embedding into the low-order bits of host image, modulus function is used to increase visual quality of stego image. Since the proposed method is able to embed...

متن کاملA Hybrid Approach to Compress Still Images using Wavelets and Vector Quantization
This paper presents a hybrid technique for compression using Wavelet and Vector Quantization (VQ). Wavelet is a technique for representing the image into various degrees of resolution. The input image of size 256 *256 pixels is divided into 4 sub-bands named LL, HL, LH, HH by applying Discrete Wavelet Transform. Vector Quantization is then applied for the lower sub band (LL). The size of lower ...
متن کاملA novel technique for image steganography based on Block-DCT and Huffman Encoding
Image steganography is the art of hiding information into a cover image. This paper presents a novel technique for Image steganography based on Block-DCT, where DCT is used to transform original image (cover image) blocks from spatial domain to frequency domain. Firstly a gray level image of size M × N is divided into no joint 8 × 8 blocks and a two dimensional Discrete Cosine Transform(2-d DCT...
