A Low Cost Image Steganalysis by Using Domain Adaptation

Information hiding and data encryption are used widely to protect data and information from anonymous access. In digital world, hiding and encrypting of the desired data into an image is a smart way to protect information with a low cost. In the digital images, steganalysis is a known method to distinguish between clean and stego images. Most of recent researches in this scope exploit feature reduction algorithms to improve the performance of correct detections. However, dimension reduction alone could not tackle the problem of steganalysis because the properties of stego images change during the steganalysis process. In this work, it is intended to propose an Image Steganalysis using visual Domain Adaptation (ISDA), which this steganalysis target images to distinguish across stego and clean images. ISDA is a dimensionality reduction approach that considers the image drifts during the steganography process in the steganalysis of target images. Moreover, ISDA employs domain invariant clustering in an embedded representation to cluster clean and stego images in the reduced subspace. The results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that ISDA thoroughly outperforms all of the state of the art methods on validation parameters, accuracy of detection and time complexit

Steganalysis of YASS using Huffman Length statistics

This work proposes two main contributions to statistical steganalysis of Yet Another Steganographic Scheme (YASS) in JPEG images. Firstly, this work presents a reliable blind steganalysis technique to predict YASS which is one of recent and least statistically detectable embedding scheme using only five features, four Huffman length statistics (H) and the ratio of file size to resolution (FR Index). Secondly these features are shown to be unique, accurate and monotonic over a wide range of settings for YASS and several supervised classifiers with the accuracy of prediction superior to most blind steganalyzers in vogue. Overall, the proposed model having Huffman Length Statistics as its linchpin predicts YASS with an average accuracy of over 94 percent

MINIMIZING DISTORTION IN STEGANOG-RAPHY BASED ON IMAGE FEATURE

There are two defects in WOW. One is image feature is not considered when hiding information through minimal distortion path and it leads to high total distortion. Another is total distortion grows too rapidly with hidden capacity increasing and it leads to poor anti-detection when hidden capacity is large. To solve these two problems, a new algorithm named MDIS was proposed. MDIS is also based on the minimizing additive distortion framework of STC and has the same distortion function with WOW. The feature that there are a large number of pixels, having the same value with one of their eight neighbour pixels and the mechanism of secret sharing are used in MDIS, which can reduce the total distortion, improve the antidetection and increase the value of PNSR. Experimental results showed that MDIS has better invisibility, smaller distortion and stronger anti-detection than WOW

CNN Based Adversarial Embedding with Minimum Alteration for Image Steganography

Historically, steganographic schemes were designed in a way to preserve image statistics or steganalytic features. Since most of the state-of-the-art steganalytic methods employ a machine learning (ML) based classifier, it is reasonable to consider countering steganalysis by trying to fool the ML classifiers. However, simply applying perturbations on stego images as adversarial examples may lead to the failure of data extraction and introduce unexpected artefacts detectable by other classifiers. In this paper, we present a steganographic scheme with a novel operation called adversarial embedding, which achieves the goal of hiding a stego message while at the same time fooling a convolutional neural network (CNN) based steganalyzer. The proposed method works under the conventional framework of distortion minimization. Adversarial embedding is achieved by adjusting the costs of image element modifications according to the gradients backpropagated from the CNN classifier targeted by the attack. Therefore, modification direction has a higher probability to be the same as the sign of the gradient. In this way, the so called adversarial stego images are generated. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed steganographic scheme is secure against the targeted adversary-unaware steganalyzer. In addition, it deteriorates the performance of other adversary-aware steganalyzers opening the way to a new class of modern steganographic schemes capable to overcome powerful CNN-based steganalysis.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Securit
