In the past few years, we have witnessed a number of powerful steganalysis technique proposed in the literature. These techniques could be categorized as either specific or universal. Each category of techniques has a set of advantages and disadvantages. A steganalysis technique specific to a steganographic embedding technique would perform well when tested only on that method and might fail on...

The overwhelming growth in communication technology and usage of public domain channels (i.e. Internet) has greatly facilitated transfer of data. However, such open communication channels have greater vulnerability to security threats causing unauthorized information access. Steganography is the art of hiding and transmitting data through apparently innocuous carriers such as text, image, audio...

Steganography is a science of hiding messages into multimedia documents. A message can be hidden in a document only if the content of a document has high redundancy. Although the embedded message changes the characteristics and nature of the document, it is required that these changes are difficult to be identified by an unsuspecting user. On the other hand, steganalysis develops theories, meth...

In the last few years, we have seen many new and powerful steganography and steganalysis techniques reported in the literature. In the following tutorial we go over some general concepts and ideas that apply to steganography and steganalysis. We review and discuss the notions of steganographic security and capacity. Some of the more recent image steganography and steganalysis techniques are ana...

To improve the detection accuracy and generalization of steganalysis, this paper proposes Steganalysis Contrastive Framework (SCF) based on contrastive learning. The SCF improves feature representation steganalysis by maximizing distance between features samples different categories minimizing same category. decrease computing complexity loss in supervised learning, we design a novel Loss (Steg...

Steganalysis is the process of cracking to identifying steganography by scrutinizing different Statistical parameter of a stego media. First of all a mathematical analysis may disclose statistical discrepancy in the stego medium. After that steganalysis process determines whether that media contains hidden message or not and then try to recover the message from it. The information hiding proces...

Steganography is used to hide the occurrence of communication. Discovering and rendering useless such covert message is an art of steganalysis. The importance of techniques that can reliably detect the presence of secret messages in images is increasing as images can hide a large amount of malicious code that could be activated by a small Trojan horse type of virus and also for tracking crimina...

In this chapter, we discuss the topic of security in wireless visual sensor networks. In particular, attention is brought to steganographic security and how it can be discouraged without challenging the primary objectives of the network. We motivate the development and implementation of more lightweight steganalytic solutions that take into account the resources made available by the network’s ...

Recently, the JPEG images are the most common format for storing images. JPEG images are very abundant on the Internet bulletin boards and public Internet sites. So it attracted the attention of researchers as the main steganographic format. There are many new and powerful steganography and steganalysis techniques in JPEG images reported in the literature, in the last few years. In this paper, ...

Image steganography is used to embed covert messages in the form of files, text, or other images in digital images. The intent is to transmit hidden information. Steganalysis is the process used to detect hidden messages in images. Although steganography is not a new discipline, it has become increasingly important in today’s digital world where information is often and easily exchanged through...
