Universal Image Steganalytic Method

In the paper we introduce a new universal steganalytic method in JPEG file format that is detecting well-known and also newly developed steganographic methods. The steganalytic model is trained by MHF-DZ steganographic algorithm previously designed by the same authors. The calibration technique with the Feature Based Steganalysis (FBS) was employed in order to identify statistical changes caused by embedding a secret data into original image. The steganalyzer concept utilizes Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification for training a model that is later used by the same steganalyzer in order to identify between a clean (cover) and steganographic image. The aim of the paper was to analyze the variety in accuracy of detection results (ACR) while detecting testing steganographic algorithms as F5, Outguess, Model Based Steganography without deblocking, JP Hide&Seek which represent the generally used steganographic tools. The comparison of four feature vectors with different lengths FBS (22), FBS (66) FBS(274) and FBS(285) shows promising results of proposed universal steganalytic method comparing to binary methods

An Efficient Data Security System Using Reserve Room Approach on Digital Images for Secret Sharing

This paper presents enhancement of d ata protection system for secret communication through common network based on reversible data concealment in encrypted images with reserve room approach. In this paper was implemented for true color RGB image and reserve room approach under multi scale decomposition. The Blue plane will be chosen for hiding the secret text data. Then image is then separated into number of blocks locally and lifting wavelet will be used to detect approximation and detailed coefficients. Then approximation part is encrypted using chaos encryption method. The proposed encryption technique uses the key to encrypt an image and not only enhances the safety of secret carrier informa tion by making the information inaccessible to any intruder having a random method. After image encryption, the data hide r will conceal the secret data into the detailed coefficients which are reserved before encryption. Although encryption achieves certain security effects, they make the secret messages unreadable and unnatural or meaningless. This system is still enhanced with encrypt messages using a symmetric key method. This is the reason a new security approach called reversible data hiding arises. It is the art of hiding the existence of data in another transmission medium to achieve secret communication. The data hidi ng technique uses the adaptive LSB replacement algorithm for concealing the secret message bits into the encrypted image. In the data extraction module, the secret data will be extracted by using relevant key for choosing the encrypted pixe ls to extract th e data. By using the decryption keys, the image and extracted text data will be extracted from encryption to get the original informatio n. Finally the performance of this proposal in encryption and data hiding will be analyzed based on image and data recovery

Hiding the Type of Skin Texture in Mice based on Fuzzy Clustering Technique

أمن نقل المعلومات موضوع هام في تبادل الرسائل السرية عبر الإنترنت. فعلى سبيل المثال ، يحرص منتجون ومستهلكون المنتجات الرقمية على معرفة أن منتجاتهم أصلية ويمكن تمييزها عن تلك المنتجات غير الصالحة. علم التشفير هو فن أخفاء البيانات في الملفات الصوتية أو الصور أو مقاطع الفيديو  في الطريقة التي من شأنها تلبية الاحتياجات الأمنية المذكورة أعلاه. إن علم إخفاء المعلومات هو فرع من فروع علم أخفاء البيانات الذي يهدف إلى الوصول إلى مستوى مرغوب فيه من الأمن في تبادل البيانات العسكرية والتجارية الخاصة غير الواضحة.هذا البحث يعرض تقنيه جديده للأخفاء بلأعتماد على أخفاء البيانات داخل العناقيد والتي نتجت من المجاميع الضبابيه.الطريقه أستخدمت المجموعه الضبابيه (C-Mean) لأيجاد مناطق الصوره المتينه لأخفاء صفات نوع نسيج الجلد في الفئران.نفذت عمليه الأخفاء بأستخدام طريقة البت الأقل اهميه.   A substantial matter to confidential messages' interchange through the internet is transmission of information safely. For example, digital products' consumers and producers are keen for knowing those products are genuine and must be distinguished from worthless products. Encryption's science can be defined as the technique to embed the data in an images file, audio or videos in a style which should be met the safety requirements. Steganography is a portion of data concealment science that aiming to be reached a coveted security scale in the interchange of private not clear commercial and military data. This research offers a novel technique for steganography based on hiding data inside the clusters that resulted from fuzzy clustering. The approach has been employed to use Fuzzy C-Mean clustering (FCM) to find the robust image regions for hiding the type of skin texture features in mice. The steganography was implemented using Least Significant Bit (LSB) method

Computational intelligence-based steganalysis comparison for RCM-DWT and PVA-MOD methods

This research article proposes data hiding technique for improving the data hiding procedure and securing the data transmission with the help of contrast mapping technique along with advanced data encryption standard. High data hiding capacity, image quality and security are the measures of steganography. Of these three measures, number of bits that can be hidden in a single cover pixel, bits per pixel (bpp), is very important and many researchers are working to improve the bpp. We propose an improved high capacity data hiding method that maintains the acceptable image quality that is more than 30 dB and improves the embedding capacity higher than that of the methods proposed in recent years. The method proposed in this paper uses notational system and achieves higher embedding rate of 4 bpp and also maintain the good visual quality. To measure the efficiency of the proposed information hiding methodology, a simulation system was developed with some of impairments caused by a communication system. PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise ratio) is used to verify the robustness of the images. The proposed research work is verified in accordance to noise analysis. To evaluate the defencing performance during attack RS steganalysis is used
